Better CADAA
The 2024-25 CA Dream Act Application
(CADAA) will include some of the changes from the new FAFSA such
as the incorporation of the Student Aid Index in lieu of the
Expected Family Contribution. Although the number of questions
will not be reduced on the CADAA, the Commission is working on
making some enhancements per the recommendations of the Renewing the Dream Report that was
released earlier this year. Commission staff are currently
analyzing these recommendations and are working towards
identifying which recommendations will be implemented for the
2024-25 award year.
One notable enhancement is:
Parent Signature Process changes
The Commission is working to build the parental signature into the original submission, which may eliminate the separate PIN creation process.
