Professional Judgements are Available to all San Diego City College Students! Click on the links below to request one.
Special Circumstances refer to the financial situations (loss of a job, etc.) that justify an aid administrator
adjusting data elements in the COA or in the SAI calculation.
Unusual Circumstances refer to the conditions that justify an aid administrator making an adjustment to
a student’s dependency status based on a unique situation (e.g., human trafficking,
refugee or asylee status, parental abandonment, abusive home environment, incarceration),
more commonly referred to as a dependency override.
Consumer Information
The Student Consumer Information Regulations of the United States Department of Education require all colleges and universities to provide their students access to certain information to which they are entitled to as consumers. Under these regulations, San Diego City, Mesa, and Miramar College and Continuing Education annually distributes to all students a notice of the availability of consumer information. The links below provide the information outlined for consumer disclosure by the Higher Education Opportunity Act (HEOA).
