Students may be eligible for various types of financial aid. If you are eligible to receive tuition fee waivers, grants, scholarships, or loans; it may cover some or all of your tuition and fees. Be sure to complete a FAFSA or CADAA application each school year to reduce your out of pocket expenses.
- If you have been awarded enough financial aid to cover your fees, payment is not required at the time of registration.
- If you have been awarded some financial aid, but not enough to cover all of your fees, you only need to pay the portion your financial aid won’t cover.
- Financial aid will only cover current semester fees. If you owe a balance from a prior semester, you are responsible for making a payment to your account.
To determine if you have any financial aid awards, please visit MyShasta > Financial Aid.
