CADAA
Starting your college journey can feel overwhelming, but securing financial aid through the CADAA is simpler than you might think.
The California Dream Act Application (CADAA) is your key to obtaining cash for college from the state of California and even your school. The CADAA is designed to help undocumented and AB 540 eligible students like you access the financial support needed for college.
By completing the CADAA, you open the door to opportunities like Cal Grants, institutional grants, scholarships, and other aid that can make a big difference. Whether you’re planning to attend a four-year university, community college, or trade school, submitting a CADAA can help you manage the cost of your education. Don’t leave money on the table—make sure you take full advantage of the financial aid available to you.
