Financial Aid Office

The Financial Aid Office provides financial assistance to students through grants, loans, scholarships and work opportunities. Spring 2013 financial aid refund checks are scheduled to be mailed to students a few days before the first week of classes.

To receive a financial aid disbursement, students must be enrolled in the proper number of units, must not have any university holds on their student record, must not be conditionally admitted to the university, and submitted all requested documents by the deadline of January 3, 2013.  Students interested in borrowing a Federal Direct Loan must be enrolled at least half-time (6 units undergraduate and credential: 4 units masters level courses), AND are required to complete an Electronic Master Promissory Note (EMPN) and a Loan Entrance Interview online at www.studentloans.gov.

Federal Pell Grant Recipients:  Your financial aid award is based on full-time enrollment (12 units undergraduate and credential).  To receive your award, you must be enrolled.  If you enroll ¾ time (9-11 units), your grant will be reduced by 75% of the award amount.  If you enroll half-time (6-8 units), your grant will be reduced by 50% of the award amount.  If you enroll less than half-time (1-5 units), your grant will be reduced by 25% of the award amount.

Direct Loan Disclosure Statment: If you plan to borrow a Federal Direct Loan, you will receive a Disclosure Statement form the Direct Loan Servicing Center. Please Note: The Anticipated Disbursement date is NOT the date your Direct Loan will be available to you. Financial Aid awards are credited to your student account prior to the first week of classes.

Financial Aid Eligibility and Repeating Classes: Students are only eligible to receive financial aid once when retaking previously passed classes. For students that have previously passed a class and subsequently failed the same class, any additional attempt cannot be included in your enrollment status for determining aid eligibility. The Financial Aid Office will identify students who are repeating previously passes course work and reduce their awards based on the adjusted enrollment status. Students will be notified on their Toro email account and directed to the Student Center to view their revised awards. Repeated classes may also count against Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) which must be taken into consideration when determining aid eligibility. Make sure to read the SAP Policy on our website at www3.csudh.edu/student-affairs/financial-aid/sap/default.html for more information.
