Check your Financial Aid status online at My.CSUDH.edu under the Student Center

Financial Aid Checks

To assist with the purchase of your books, Spring 2010 financial aid balance checks will begin to be mailed to your mailing address by Student Financial Services prior to the first week of classes. The check will be the balance after payment of any outstanding University obligations (e.g., registration fees, library fines, housing, etc.). Financial aid awards are based on full-time enrollment (12 units undergraduate & credential students and 8 units (500 series) for master students). If you enroll less than full-time, your awards will be automatically adjusted.

If you meet all of the following conditions, a check should be mailed to your mailing address prior to the first week of classes. If you:

do not have any university holds.
are not conditionally admitted to CSUDH.

Reminder: Checks will continue to be mailed each week during the semester. If you receive a check and then decide to withdraw from the University or drop units, you will be required to repay all or part of the financial aid received. Return the uncashed check to the Financial Aid Office immediately.
