🌟Important Notice: Updates on the Financial Aid Department 🌟
The Student Affairs and Success Center (SA) will be temporarily closed for repairs from July 21 through August 1, 2025. During this time, the Financial Aid Office will not be open in its usual location, but we’re still here to help!
You can reach us by email or phone, and we’ll also have limited in-person support available in the Mel Lindbloom Student Union (SU).

Thanks for your patience while we improve our campus spaces—we look forward to supporting you however we can!
💰Summer Quarter Aid:
If you're enrolled for Summer classes, we're prioritizing your financial aid to ensure
you're supported for the upcoming quarter. To avoid having your classes dropped due
to non-payment, applications submitted before April 30th will receive a Tuition Deferred hold. Our team is working quickly to process your Summer aid so you can focus on your
academic goals.
🔍To Do List:
Need to check if anything is required from you? Head to the "Tasks" section on your
ctcLink home page for any updates. We’re continuously working to update the To Do
List items, so please be aware it may take 5-7 business days for your submitted items
to show as completed. Not everyone will need to submit additional documents, but if
you do, we’ll notify you promptly once we receive your aid application.
