Financial Aid for Summer Sessions

 

General Information

For financial aid purposes, all summer sessions are combined into one processing term. To be considered for student aid, including private educational loans, you must be enrolled on at least a half-time basis, defined as 6 hours spread over all summer sessions (May, Summer I and Summer II).

The summer is considered the end of the academic year, so to be considered for federal financial aid for summer, you must have a current year FAFSA on file. The 2008 summer sessions require the completion of the 2007-2008 FAFSA. You can check the status of your 2007-2008 FAFSA by logging onto VIP, choosing "Financial" and then choosing "Financial Aid Application Status."

In addition to the 2007-2008 FAFSA, a USC Financial Aid Summer Application for 2007-2008 is required. The application is available on VIP beginning April 1, 2008. The deadline to complete the application is May 1, 2008. This deadline is strictly enforced. Because of compressed time frames for summer, our Office must adhere to strict application deadlines.
