Benefits of Attending Full-Time
While you don’t have to be a full-time student to receive financial aid, taking more units does mean more money if you qualify for federal and/or state grants.
Please Note: Financial aid amounts are subject to change.
Federal Work-Study provides part-time jobs for students with financial need. The program encourages community service work and work related to your field of study. To receive funds, you’ll need to be awarded work-study and secure a job.
