Can i recieve financial aid(through fafsa) if i'm only taking a couple courses over the summer?

Question

Or are there any other ways i can save/get money for those 2 classses?

Answer 1

Fill out the FAFSA and find out what you can get.  The 2007/2008 ENDS JUNE 30.  The 2008/2009 STARTS JULY 1.

Answer 2

Two courses during the summer is considered full time, and yes, you can get fin aid for the summer.

Answer 3

Yes.

If you're taking 2 classes that are a total of 3.0 units or credits each, then you are considered a full-time summer semester students and you will receive. Even if you weren't a full-time student and you were only taking one class then you would still get financial aid.

I hope this helps.

*Cheers*

Answer 4

Did you file a  fafsa for 2007-2008? Because I'm pretty sure the summer session is considered part of 2007-2008, not 2008-2009. Let your financial aid office know what you want to do as soon as possible, so they don't put your application on the bottom of the stack.
