For undocumented students to qualify for AB540 and the Dream Act they must have been enrolled in a California high school for the past three years. That’s it! Students can apply for financial aid at www.caldreamact.org. They will fill out a form that is much like the FAFSA except it has been modified a bit for these students. AB540 students can now qualify for financial aid to pay for 4 year colleges, community colleges as well as trade/vocational schools. The Cal Grant alone for UC's is almost $10,000 a year!
We have posted useful information and links about AB540 and
the Dream Act in the guidance section of our school web site. If you have any questions, please talk to your counselor.
