CSAC requires the student to meet with their FAA who will review the student\u2019s financial aid package to see if it would be in the student\u2019s best interest to switch Cal Grant awards. Some factors that the FAA might consider are tuition-only scholarships, tuition remissions, veterans\u2019 benefits, or other sources of funding, prior to switching from a Cal Grant award.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-conclusion\"><span id=\"conclusion\">Conclusion<\/span><\/h2><p>The key to getting Cal grant A package resides largely on the federal student aid application form, better known as FAFSA. This is the document schools use to determine federal aid, including federal direct loans and Pell grants. Many institutions also use it to decide whether students qualify for their own scholarship fund.<\/p><p>Usually, parents don&#8217;t pay much attention to FAFSA before the deadline. However, once you understand how the form works, you have a better chance of meeting the help criteria. It&#8217;s also important to look beyond the form itself and realize that finding the right school can be as important to your prospect for help as what you write on the document. Finally, If you don\u2019t qualify for a Cal Grant this year, you\u2019re encouraged to apply again next year.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-we-also-recommend\"><span id=\"we-also-recommend\">We Also Recommend:<\/span><\/h2><ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/businessyield.com\/raising-funds\/student-finance\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Student Finance: Grants, Loans, Applications (+ How to Start Guide<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/businessyield.com\/business-coaching\/student-finance-2\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Student Finance: A Complete How-to-Apply Guide<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/businessyield.com\/business-coaching\/grants-definition-types-examples-and-eligibility\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Grants: Definition, Types, Examples And Eligibility<\/a><\/li><\/ul>","protected":false,"gt_translate_keys":[{"key":"rendered","format":"html"}]},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Apart from scholarships, another way to finance your studies without having to run into debts is by applying&hellip;\n","protected":false,"gt_translate_keys":[{"key":"rendered","format":"html"}]},"author":118,"featured_media":19628,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[56],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-19341","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-grant-opportunities"},"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>CAL GRANT A: Applications, Requirements, Eligibility, Amount<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Cal Grant A is a financial award that covering tuition and fees at colleges as well as some private career colleges.
