Financial Aid

Welcome to Financial Aid! Our goal is to assist you in bridging the gap between your own resources and the cost of attending college. We offer assistance with completing applications and providing information about the requirements of the various financial aid programs. Financial aid consists of federal grants, work study, state grants, fee waivers, and outside scholarships.

Maintaining Eligibility

Attention Students: Don’t lose your California College Promise Grant!
The California College Promise Grant is now based on minimum GPA and course completion standards! (W’s/NP’s)

Starting Fall 2016 semester, your grades will be used to determine CC Promise Grant. Due to a change in state law, students will need to sustain a GPA of 2.0 or higher and complete 50% of coursework to maintain CC Promise Grant eligibility. If your GPA falls below a 2.0 and/or cumulative course completion is less than 50% for two consecutive primary terms (fall/spring), you may lose your CC Promise Grant.

SAP – Satisfactory Academic Progress

Grades and completion of attempted classes impact your eligibility for Financial Aid! Check our the Academic Progress (click here) page for details.

• Keep a 2.0 GPA, and complete all courses attempted to maintain pace of 66.65%.
• Complete all academic program requirements within 150% of normal time.
• Submit semester appeal by the deadline, and know where to get progress report forms and when they are due if your appeal is pending progress reports.
• Review Self Service Student FA Information page for your SAP details.

Reach out to your campus’ Financial Aid or Counseling Office to find how you can keep your education on track.
