Our Best Answer - How can I get financial aid if I missed deadlines?

Financial Aid Deadlines

Students who file a FAFSA or CADAA application after the March 2 priority filing deadline and/or submit requested information after deadlines specified by the Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships may have limited eligibility for some financial aid programs. These aid programs include: Institutional Aid such as university grants and scholarships, Cal grants, and Work-Study. Students who have missed a financial aid deadline can submit an On-time Status Appeal.
