Student Success Completion Grant
Student Success Completion Grant can help you pay for your college education.
The Student Success Completion Grant (SSCG) award provides students receiving a Cal Grant with additional financial aid when students take 12 or 15 units or more per term.
SSCGs provide students with aid to help offset the total costs of community college and to encourage full-time attendance and successful on-time completion.
About
Eligibility goes to students receiving a Cal Grant B or C who take at least 12 units per term. Apply by filling out a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) or California Dream Act Application (CADAA). Students must also be making satisfactory academic progress (SAP) with unmet needs to receive the SSCG.
Award Amount
Cal Grant recipients can get an additional $1,298 per year (if enrolled in at least 12 units per term) or up to $4,000 per year (if enrolled in at least 15 units per term). This award cannot be guaranteed, as it is a limited fund.
More financial aid programs are available.
