-
You must enroll in all of your summer classes for all summer

**You will not qualify for a Summer Pell Grant if you do not enroll in
any classes at City College**
For the Summer 2009 term, the enrollment status for Financial Aid
purposes will be different than the college enrollment status.
The
Summer Financial Aid
enrollment statuses are:
STATUS ENROLLMENT
Full-time 9 or more units
3/4-time 7 to 8.5 units
1/2-time 5 to 6.5 units
Less than ½
0.5 to 4.5 units
Important Reminder:
Every student’s eligibility is different.
Your actual
Summer Pell Grant may
vary depending on your EFC, your remaining Pell Grant eligibility, your
summer enrollment status and your program.
Changes in your enrollment status will result in a change of your Summer
Pell Grant award. **It may take 2 – 3 days
before your changes to your
Summer
Pell award become effective.**
Depending on your eligibility, a portion of your Summer Pell Grant will
be available for use at the San Diego Community College District
Bookstores. The maximum amount that will be available at the Bookstore
will be $350.
The Bookstore process will be available from May 26, 2009 to June 25,
2009. The balance of your Summer Pell Grant, if any, will be disbursed
based on your enrollment status as of July 2, 2009 (Enrollment Freeze
date). Checks will be mailed and Direct Deposits will be available on
July 9, 2009 or if requested, checks will be available for pick up at
the A.S. Cashier on July 14, 2009. If your check is scheduled for pick
up, you will have two weeks to pick it up before it is canceled.
Classes added after July
2, 2009 will not be counted towards your Summer Pell Grant eligibility.
If you drop or withdraw from all of your summer classes, you may have to
repay funds received based on the date you dropped or withdrew from
classes. You will be notified by mail if you are required to repay any
funds.
