Summary

SB 685 establishes a Financial Assistance for Students Experiencing Homelessness Pilot Program at four California State University campuses, one in each of four geographic regions. Eligible students—California residents or tuition‑exempt nonresidents who were homeless in high school and are ages 17‑26—receive aid that fills the gap between their total cost of attendance and any other financial aid (excluding federal loans) for up to four years. The program aims to improve post‑secondary access for students who experienced homelessness.
