The bill does not impact aid packages for the upcoming 2025-2026 academic year.  

What We Do Know:

  • The California State University system is working diligently to assess any potential impact on our students.
  • As this is an emerging update we will continue to provide updates as soon as more information becomes available.
  • For more information, visit The CSU Federal Updates page.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.
