Additional Information about Your Disbursement
The California College Promise Grant (CCPG) is a financial resource available to help you meet your educational expenses and may appear on your award letter. This is not cash award. If you have already paid your registration fees, you may be eligible for a refund. You must contact Enrollment Services to see if you are eligible for refund. 

Financial aid funds are generally not available at the beginning of each semester.  Disbursements usually begin approximately 1 week after classes begin.  However, not all students will receive funds on every disbursement date.  Disbursement dates are determined based on the student’s FAFSA/CADAA completion date, the date all required tasks are completed, student enrollment status and eligibility status. Students are encouraged to be prepared to pay for books and supplies out of their own resources. 

Any grants you are eligible for are automatically accepted on your behalf.  As a condition of receipt of any federal or state financial aid funds, you agree and accept the Terms and Conditions. If you wish to decline any funds, please contact the financial aid office.

Pell Grants are disbursed in two equal payments, highlighted as major disbursements on the schedule for each term.  Supplemental disbursements are provided if you have not received any funds during the major disbursement dates. 

Please note that student payments are contingent to meeting Federal Satisfactory Academic Progress. 

You will only be paid for classes you are actively attending and that are eligible for grant and/or loan funding.  Offer letters reflect the maximum amount of funds available to you and are based on full-time enrollment intensity.

If you are enrolled less than full-time, your disbursement will be adjusted in accordance with federal regulations based on your current enrollment intensity. The disbursement amounts allowed are available in the table below. 

Enrollment Intensity

Awards are based on enrollment intensity; however, enrollment status calculation for 2023-2024 academic year differs from that of 2024-2025 academic year.  Students are not necessarily required to enroll in full-time to receive aid. If students are enrolled in less than full-time for the semester, disbursements will be adjusted in accordance with the enrollment intensity.
