Federal Pell Grant: The Federal Pell Grant Program is the largest federal student aid program. For many students, these grants provide a foundation of financial assistance that may be supplemented by other resources.

Federal Stafford Loan (FSL): Formerly the Guaranteed Student Loan (GSL), this low-interest loan is available to qualified students through the lending institutions or agencies participating in the program and is guaranteed by the U.S. government.

Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG): Students who are unable to continue their education without additional assistance may qualify for this program. Grants are based on the funds available and do not have to be repaid.

Federal Parent Loan for Undergraduate Students (FPLUS): The Federal Parent Loan for Undergraduate Students (FPLUS) provides additional funds to help parents pay for educational expenses.

Federal Work-Study (FWS): This program provides jobs for qualified students who are unable to continue their education without additional assistance. FWS enables students to earn money for educational expenses by working on campus or for an off-campus employer assigned by the School.

Sallie Mae Alternative Loan Program (SLM): SLM Financial provides a customized loan program to qualified applicants that will offer borrowers financing for their educational costs.

Student Tuition Assistance Resource Loan (STAR Loan): Students who do not qualify for the Sallie Mae Alternative Loan Program may be eligible to borrow up to fifty percent of their tuition costs through the STAR Loan program. The STAR Loan is not available for full tuition financing. Students must have a primary source of tuition funding to be eligible for this plan.

Cal Grants: California sponsors the Cal Grant programs through the Student Aid Commission. Students who are California residents seeking postsecondary education may qualify if they have not defaulted on a previous student loan and do not owe a refund on any state or federal educational grant. Awards are based on financial need, academic progress and program of study.
