Complete the online FAFSA or California Dream Act Application (CADAA). If you cannot complete one of those applications, complete the California College Promise Grant application here. To find contact information for your college's financial aid office, use the office locator.

The California College Promise Grant, available to eligible students, will waive your per-unit enrollment fee (tuition) at any California community college throughout the state.

All of the state and federal student financial aid programs listed on our site are reserved for U.S. citizens and California residents. However, many colleges have private scholarships or loan programs for international students. You should select a college that you are interested in attending and then contact them directly – through the Financial Aid Office or the Scholarship Office – to see if they can help you.
