Here are some of the answers to the question that was asked before:

"Will we get any money for this?"

If you meet the May 10 deadline for filling out the California dream act application, and you are attending a CSU, if you meet the income eligibility guidelines, you will receive a state University grant ~ which will pay the majority of your tuition fees. AT SF state, tuition in spring 2012 is $3138. The state University grant this semester is $2736 which means the student would only be required to pay $402.

"so wait, you can still get money even if you've graduated already?(undergrad)



No, if you’ve graduated, you're not able to get the money retroactively. You have to be enrolled in the spring 2013 semester (or future semesters) in order to be able to receive state funds.


I thought the CalGrant was for people in their 4th year or sooner...?"

CalGrant is a grant for students who have graduated high school in California. It can be awarded for a maximum of 8 years, but if the student applies for it after already entering college, there are often only 2 years or less at the grant can be yolanda venegas awarded.



"Is this a one-time thing? Or will I be able to apply next year? "

This is not a one-time thing. If you continue to apply for the dream application on time, and continue to meet income eligibility guidelines, there is no end date for the student's ability to receive this aid.
