Campus Service Update

Barstow Community College continues to experience network outages that are limiting some on-campus services. Our technical teams are actively working to restore full functionality as quickly as possible.
The campus remains open, and all in-person and online classes will continue as scheduled. Students should continue attending classes unless otherwise notified by their instructor.
We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to resolve these issues.

Thank you for your continued cooperation.

DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals)

What is Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA)?

Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) is a federal process that defers removal action of an individual by USCIS for a specified number of years.

  • It is not the same as financial aid
  • It does not grant lawful immigration status
  • It does allow individuals to apply for an SSN and work authorization

CA Dreamers should still file a CA Dream Act Application instead of a FAFSA and submit a Non-SSN GPA.
