Senior Parents – Opt Out of Cal Grant and Middle Class Scholarship Consideration

News Debbie Austin

Every year, SFHS uploads information to the California Student Aid Commission so that students can be considered for Cal Grants and UC/CSU’s Middle Class Scholarships (families with incomes and assets up to $217,000 might be eligible). This information includes student name, address, and date of birth and will be matched with information on the student’s FAFSA to determine eligibility (FAFSA does not open until October 1). Please ensure that your daughter has a California college or university listed as the first college on the FAFSA, and ensure at least one California college or university is on her FAFSA at all times.

We will upload the name, address, date of birth, and Cal Grant GPA (unweighted GPA of courses taken in 10th & 11th grades only) of every student in the Class of 2023 unless you would like to opt out. 

If you DO NOT want your daughter’s information uploaded to the California Student Aid Commission, email Debbie Austin by Monday, October 3, 2022.
