There are several types of financial aid available to students at Merced College. Our financial aid awards include federal and state grants, state fee waivers, work-study jobs, and scholarships. We do not currently participate in the federal student loan program so students completing their studies at Merced College do not finish here with a student loan debt. You can receive multiple forms of financial aid. Many of our students receive an award which is a combination of several forms of financial aid. You do not need to be a full-time student to receive
financial aid. Your award can be prorated for three quarter-time (9 to
11 units), or half-time (6 to 8 units). At less than half-time you may
or may not receive an award. It depends on your EFC or Expected Family
Contribution.
New BOGC "minimum need" threshold Beginning
Fall 2012 all students being awarded BOGC fee waivers must
meet the minimum need threshold of $1104. At Merced
College, only students with an estimated family contribution
(EFC) of 10415 or less will be eligible to receive a fee waiver
based on FAFSA eligibility standards.
Net Price Calculator
The
net
price calculator
is a tool for students and parents to use to get the
estimate of what it may cost to attend Merced College each year. It is
important for you to understand that the information you receive from the
calculator is a broad estimate. Many factors come into play when we award
financial aid to students including, but not limited to: deadlines, levels
of funding, grade levels, and academics. You can now check your status online at MC4Me | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
