Irvine Campus: Financial Aid
Financial aid is available to remove the cost barriers that may prevent you from pursuing your educational goals. Assistance is available from a variety of programs funded by federal, state, university and private sources. Students who demonstrate significant financial need may qualify for grant aid while students with less need may obtain low cost loans. Financial need is determined through a federal formula that assesses the family’s relative financial strength and ability to contribute to meeting the student’s educational costs.
Financial aid options are available to graduate and professional students. Although some funding sources, such as the Federal Pell Grant, are available only for undergraduate study, there is a wide variety of loan and scholarship dollars for graduate study. Please click here to see an overview of the the eligibility criteria, sources for assistance, and application processes for obtaining financial aid. To find out additional information about financial aid please check out the Financial Aid website: http://www.fullerton.edu/financialaid/
ENROLLMENT REQUIREMENTS FOR GRADUATE STUDENTS
To ensure timely processing and disbursement of your aid, please note the following enrollment requirements for graduate students:
- Federal regulations require half-time enrollment to receive Federal Stafford loan funding.
- At CSUF, you must be enrolled in at least six units per semester of 400/500 level courses to meet this requirement.
- Lower division courses do not count toward your graduate degree program; therefore, they are not counted toward the half-time enrollment requirement for financial aid purposes. This section applies more specifically to MS Accountancy students who need to complete 15 units of 300 level Accounting Prerequisites. If you are taking lower division courses as pre-requisites for your graduate program or for any other reason, you will not be eligible to receive a financial aid payment unless you are also enrolled in the equivalent of 6 upper-division and/or graduate units.
TYPES OF AVAILABLE AID
Federal Perkins Loan
Federal Perkins Loan
is a federally
funded program
providing long-term
low-interest loans
for students who
demonstrate
financial need.
Interest does not
accrue on the loan
and there is no
repayment while the
student is enrolled
at least half time.
Repayment begins
nine months
following
graduation,
withdrawal, or
enrollment below
half-time status.
Graduate student who
qualify may receive
up to $8,000. For
details (click
here).
Federal Direct
Stafford Loans
Federal Stafford
loans are available
to assist you in
meeting your
educational
expenses. Subsidized
Stafford loans are
based on
demonstrated
financial need; the
government pays the
interest on your
behalf while you are
enrolled at least
half-time (six
credit units).
Unsubsidized
Stafford loans are
available if you do
not qualify, in
whole or in part,
for a subsidized
loan to meet your
expenses. You may
elect to pay the
interest on your
unsubsidized student
loan while you are
enrolled or you may
request that the
interest be
capitalized and
repaid along with
the principal after
you complete your
program. For more
details see the
financial aid
website (click
here).
To receive a Federal Stafford loan, you must be a U.S. Citizen or permanent resident and you must meet all other Federal Student Aid eligibility requirements. These requirements are published in the U.S. Department of Education Guide to Federal Student Aid.
Federal Direct Plus
Loans for Graduate
Students
Graduate PLUS
loans are available
to graduate
students. The
PLUS loan
is a long-term loan
program with a fixed
interest rate.
Eligibility for PLUS
loan is base on your
good credit history.
Like the
unsubsidized Federal
Stafford Loan, the
interest on a PLUS
loan accrues from
the point of
disbursement. PLUS
loans may not exceed
the cost of
education minus
other aid. For more
details see the
financial aid
website (click
here).
Annual Loan Limits
Annual loan limits
are $20,500 for
combined subsidized
and unsubsidized
loans. Your total
eligibility will be
determined by the
CSUF Office of
Financial Aid based
on your direct
program costs and
standard allowances
for room and board,
transportation and
personal expenses.
Your loan cannot
exceed your annual
program costs.
Please see the
financial aid
website for details
on
loan maximums.
Scholarships
Cal State Fullerton is pleased to offer a wide variety of scholarships and awards to honor outstanding achievement. Nearly $2 million in scholarships and awards is paid annually at Cal State Fullerton. Students apply for scholarships and are nominated for awards.
In addition to scholastic achievement, financial need and other factors may be considered in the selection process. Many scholarships use the standard found through the Financial Aid website. Read and follow the “application procedure” for each scholarship or award in which you are interested. Most applications are due the last Friday in February and recipients are notified by the selection committee, usually in late May. Due to the large number of applications received, non-selected applicants are not notified.
