New Driving age in California?

I'm being told that since I was born March 12, 1994 that I won't get my license until I am 18 and won't be able to get my permit until I am 17 and a half. Is this true? Also, please tell me what the cut off day is. Thanks.

Minor's Permit Requirements

A minor is a person under 18 years of age. Minors must have their application for a driver license or any change of license class signed by their parents or legal guardians.

NOTE: Minors may not work as a driver for pay until they are 18 years old and licensed in California and they may not drive a school bus containing pupils.

To get a permit, you must:

Be at least 15½, but under 18 years of age.
Complete the application requirements.

Have your parents’ or guardians’ signatures on the DL 44.

Pass a traffic laws and road signs test. If you fail the test, you must wait one week before taking it again. This will give you time to study.

If you are between 15½ and 17½, provide proof that you have met one of the following requirements:

completed driver education (DE) and driver training (DT). (DL 387, DL 388, DL 388A, OL 237, or OL 238)

completed DE and are taking DT. (DL 387, DL 392, OL 237, or OL 392)

enrolled and participating in an approved integrated DE/DT program. (DL 400)

The provisional permit is not valid until you start your behind-the-wheel driver training with an instructor or reach age 17½.
