Important Financial Aid Updates

Please review the important financial aid updates below.

2023-2024 Financial Aid  

If you have already applied and submitted all required documentation for Winter Quarter financial aid, you should receive an aid offer notification soon if you have not received it already. Disbursement of financial aid money for Winter Quarter begins on January 5.

Students applying now should check that all outstanding documents have been submitted and plan to pay your tuition (or make tuition payment arrangements) if your aid has not been finalized by the tuition deadline of January 3, 2024.

Because the disbursement of financial aid will start on January 5, all financial aid students who have an aid offer notification are protected from being dropped for non-payment.

If you are interested in financial aid for this coming Winter and/or Spring, but haven’t applied yet, there’s still time to apply for 2023-2024 financial aid. If you need assistance or have questions, please visit our financial aid office, M-TH, 8-5pm, and Friday, 8-12 or email us at Financialaid@shoreline.edu.
