Once the data provided on your financial aid applications and any additional required documentation has been reviewed, a financial aid award will be prepared for you.
You will receive an email from our office when your award is available to view in Banner Self-Service. Before accepting your award, you will be prompted to read, review, and agree to the Terms and Conditions.
Your eligibility for financial aid is based on the data in your financial aid applications as well as your cost of attendance. Your cost of attendance is based in part on full time enrollment status (3 or more units) and the living arrangement information supplied by the Office of Residence Life. If either your enrollment status or living arrangements have changed, your award will be revised.
Your award will consist of one or more of the following types of aid:
