FAFSA/CADAA Priority Deadline Updates
Posted 2025-01-17

The California Student Aid Commission (CSAC) recently announced important changes to the FAFSA and California Dream Act Application (CADAA) priority deadlines:

  • State Deadline: March 3, 2025
  • Extended Deadline for LA and Ventura County Students: April 2, 2025 (due to the impact of recent fires).

Advocacy efforts are underway to extend the April 2 deadline statewide. We will provide updates as they become available.

Completing the FAFSA or CADAA is critical for accessing state financial aid programs, such as the Cal Grant and Middle Class Scholarship. Be sure to submit your application on time to maximize your opportunities.
