Alternate financial aid form in the works to help access California Dream Act funds
 
The University of California Office of the President is working to create an alternative financial aid form for undocumented students to access state-funded financial aid under the California Dream Act.
Undocumented students eligible for in-state tuition will be able to receive state-administered financial aid starting January 2013. But these students often cannot use the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, or FAFSA, form because they lack the necessary information – such as a Social Security number – to complete it.

The CSUs are going to do the same thing. It's in the bill.

And the new forms and system of determining financial need will be very similar (if not identical) to the FAFSA, so if you want to know how much aid you would qualify for, I suggest you calculate your Expected Family Contribution (EFC) using the FAFSA guidelines and take it from there.

What happens if the Referendum kills it?
