Cal-SOAP Success Coaches
Cal-SOAP Success Coaches work with school counselors to support students through the financial aid and college admission processes and raise awareness of financial aid and college eligibility requirements.

- Financial aid and college access information presented through a combination of group workshops, information campaigns, and one-on-one advising sessions
- Direct support for FAFSA/CADAA applications and creation of FSA ID and their Webgrants4Students account
- Financial Aid Offer Letter interpretation and college affordability assessment
- Information about college application and enrollment timelines, deadlines, and eligibility requirements
- College and scholarship application support
- Progress reports informing them of where they are in the financial aid and college admissions processes and what their next steps should be
