The California College Affordability Summit: A Pathway to Financial Aid
This year, CSAC hosted its 2nd annual California College Affordability Summit in an effort to bring California’s K-12 and Higher Education communities together. The Summit will provide educators and policy leaders information and resources about the importance of financial aid and its ability to increase college access, enrollment, and persistence. Session topics will include embedding financial aid application completion within curricula, developing systems of support for vulnerable student populations, securing policy and system changes, and maximizing partnership efforts between higher education and K-12 institutions. We hope you were able to join us for this one-day virtual experience!
CSAC’s Response to COVID-19
The COVID-19 crisis
has uprooted all of our lives, especially the lives of
our students whose college experience has
turned into a virtual one overnight. We at the
California Student Aid Commission (CSAC) applaud segments and
campuses for pivoting quickly to ensure students
remain on their educational path. We also recognize
equity gaps have widened due to COVID-19.
