There have been significant challenges at the national level with the 2024-25 FAFSA application which has impacted Shoreline’s ability to provide student aid information before Summer Quarter begins.

Despite the delay, we want students to know that we have plans in place to ensure students are supported.

Students attending Summer Quarter 

  • For priority consideration, the college must receive your valid 2024-2025 FAFSA or WASFA application and you must be registered for summer classes by June 21, 2024 
  • Students who meet the June 21, 2024, priority deadline will be held in their classes and will not be dropped for nonpayment while their financial aid application is reviewed. 
  • Students who miss the June 21, 2024, deadline should have another plan to pay their tuition until their file can be reviewed and eligibility determined. 

  Applying for financial aid does not guarantee eligibility for money.  Thus, we highly recommend students consider other alternative funding and payment options such as: 

  Students attending Fall Quarter 

  • Review of files will begin after students attending summer quarter have been processed. 

  We are here to help! 

If you need assistance in completing your financial aid application, please contact us via email or stop by our office.

Current Service Hours of Operation 
Monday-Thursday: 8:00AM – 5:00PM 
Fridays: 8:00am -4:30pm 

Email: financialaid@shoreline.edu 

Note: Starting June 3, 2024, through June 28, 2024, Financial Aid Office will have limited frontline services as the office will need to focus on serving students by doing file review and awarding before the summer quarter starts.

Please be sure to keep an eye on your email for any requests for additional information from our office and visit our website for updates.
