Limited funding
Financial aid to attend summer classes is limited and may include estimated student loan(s). To help you pay the total cost, you may need to borrow a student loan.
Global Campus
You will be evaluated for summer financial aid if registered at least half-time and in at least one summer session. Half-time means 6 units for undergraduate students and students in a teaching credential program or 5 units for graduate students.
You will be evaluated with any remaining aid eligibility available since summer funding depends on the types and amounts of assistance used during fall and spring, as there are yearly maximums for students that cannot be exceeded.
