Hope you have had a wonderful winter break!

This is a great opportunity, even if you took it last year it is a good idea to take it again. We had some problems with the results last year due to the site getting overwhelmed. I have been guaranteed that will not happen again! I have included the link to the form below:

Santa Rosa Junior College will be here Wednesday, January 22nd, at 11 am to present to our students. If you are interested in attending please sign up on the form below.

Common App - complete and if I am giving you a recommendation, get me your brag sheet!

Login and create your FAFSA or CADAA account and create invites for parents. FAFSA and CADAA are open! This is the perfect time to get this done!

https://studentaid.gov/h/apply-for-aid/fafsa   - FAFSA

https://dream.csac.ca.gov/landing - CADAA

Finish up and research scholarship applications. There are links below for more scholarship opportunities.

Not going to college? No problem, work on your classes and get everything caught up so you graduate. Credit Recovery students GET GOING!

Come see me if you have questions or need help! Please do not hesitate! I am here to help all of you!

Anticipated date the FAFSA and CADAA ARE open. They are going through an initial process right now, trying to get rid of any bugs or problems that were encountered last year.

Students can create their account and invite contributors (parent/parents/guardians) to also create an account. This way when it opens, you will be ready to go. Students need their own personal email account, honestly, this should be set up in their Freshman year because we also use it for dual-enrollment sign-ups. Students should not use their MUSD email! 

Parents who file separate tax returns need separate accounts.

Student name needs to be an exact match to Social Security Card, also student school records need to be an exact match for Cal Grant.

Contributors without a Social Security number should apply very early, during that time there has historically not been a manual verification process.

The FAFSA and CADAA form actually help determine the different types of financial aid ply and pay the fee for the Common APP, only to find out that the University they were applying to did not charge an application fee. Do your research!

Gift Aid - grants and scholarships

Self-help Aid - Loans and student employment

Federal Work Study Programs - these are better than a job because academics always come first with these positions.

Please let me know if you are interested in a “Cash for College” night. I would like to hold it in the first week of December if there is interest.
