LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
(1)Existing law establishes the Middle Class Scholarship Program, the Cal Grant A and B Entitlement awards, the California Community College Transfer Entitlement awards, the Competitive Cal Grant A and B awards, the Cal Grant C awards, and the Cal Grant T awards under the administration of the Student Aid Commission, and establishes eligibility requirements for awards under these programs for participating students attending qualifying institutions.
Existing law requires applicants for Cal Grant A Entitlement Awards and Cal Grant B Entitlement Awards to submit complete financial aid applications in the academic year of high school graduation or equivalent or in the academic year immediately following high school graduation for the immediately following award year.
This bill, commencing with the 2020–21 award year, would instead authorize applicants for these awards to submit financial aid applications in any academic year subsequent to their high school graduation or equivalent for the immediately following award year.
(2)Existing law requires applicants for Cal Grant A Entitlement Awards, Cal Grant B Entitlement Awards, and California Community College Transfer Cal Grant Entitlement Awards to have graduated from high school or its equivalent during or after the 2000–01 academic year and to meet specified grade point average requirements.
This bill, commencing with the 2020–21 award year, would repeal the graduation date and grade point average eligibility requirements and make conforming changes.
(3)Existing law requires applicants for Cal Grant B Entitlement Awards to have not reached 26 years of age by July 1 of the initial award year. Existing law requires applicants for a California Community College Transfer Cal Grant Entitlement Award to not be 28 years of age or older by December 31 of an award year.
This bill, commencing with the 2020–21 award year, would repeal both of these requirements and make conforming changes.
(4)This bill would express legislative findings and declarations relating to the state’s student financial aid system. The bill would also express the intent of the Legislature to enact legislation, to be known as the Cal Grant Reform Act, to accomplish specified goals.
This bill would enact the Cal Grant Reform Act, which would revise and recast the provisions establishing
and governing the existing Cal Grant programs and the Middle Class Scholarship Program into a single Cal Grant Program under the administration of the Student Aid Commission. The bill would add an authorization for summer Cal Grant awards beginning with the 2020–21 award year, as specified. These Cal Grant Reform Act provisions, other than the summer grant award authorization, would become operative on July 1, 2021. The bill would also make numerous conforming changes.
