Financial Aid

Students who are eligible for financial aid may apply their aid to Cal State 麻豆蜜桃AV-sponsored study abroad programs to offset these educational expenses. 麻豆蜜桃AVing for financial aid for studying abroad is the same as applying for aid as a regular student. You just file the Free Application for Federal Student Aid , also known as the FAFSA. By filing the FAFSA, you are applying for federal grants and student loans. We encourage you to apply early in the calendar year for assistance in the upcoming academic year.

Students who are considering using financial aid should speak with a financial aid counselor as part of their application process. (Students may email finaid@csueastbay.edu to request an appointment to discuss study abroad plans and financial aid eligibility.)
