How do I complete the Cal Grant GPA Verification Form?
Read the instructions carefully before completing the Cal Grant GPA Verification Form. Please note that schools must complete the “For School Use Only” section at the bottom of the form. First, complete the “To be Filled Out by Student” section at the top of the form (use black ink only). Have your school complete the For School Use Only section, then make and keep a photocopy, and mail it by the March 2 postmark deadline to: California Student Aid Commission Cal Grant Operations Branch P.O. Box 419077 Rancho Cordova, CA 95741-9077 If you already have a Cal Grant or a Cal Grant Reserve award and wish to renew that award, you dont have to complete the GPA Verification Form. Just complete the FAFSA and list the college youll be attending in the fall in Step Six. (The school you list will certify your Cal Grant renewal eligibility.) If youre already in college and are applying for a new Cal Grant, you must submit both the FAFSA and your verified Cal Grant GPA to be considered for an award
