A projected 350,000 California high school seniors will grad- uate in 2008, according to the CSAC.

The grants have been available for more than 10 years, and are accessible to anyone who graduated high school while living in California. To apply for a Cal Grant, students must submit forms before the March 2 deadline. Cal Grants do not have to be paid back, and students can earn up to $9,700 each year.

After you have solved the "Order Grid" doing as direction "A" says, put the let- ters from horizontal rows, from left to right, under "Decoded Message" and make words to form the answer.
