California Code, Education Code - EDC § 71030

On or before July 31, 2019, the Chancellor of the California Community Colleges shall revise the California community college online application process so that only data that is required by the federal government or state law, or that is otherwise necessary, as determined by the chancellor, is collected during the process.  To the extent that data can be collected from the student at a later time, the chancellor may delay the collection of that data until after the student has applied to a community college.
