Am I still eligible for Financial Aid? 

Yes, UCSD students may be eligible for Financial Aid. Enrollment in a minimum of 6 units in summer courses is required for the Financial Aid Office to determine the amount of an award. When students enroll in a total of 6 units or more, the system automatically creates an application for summer aid. 

Commonly asked questions:

• How many units are required for financial aid?

Students must be enrolled in a minimum of 6 units for the entire summer (any session). Enrollment can look like one of the samples below with each course being 4 units: 

• If I’m on a waitlist, do those units count towards my 6 units?

Waitlisted courses do not count towards a minimum total units. Students must be enrolled in a minimum total of 6 units for the entire Summer Session. As students move off the waitlist, they are enrolled in classes. Once the minimum is 6 units, financial aid is notified. 

• Can I apply for aid if I’m planning to attend a different UC campus?

Student should contact the San Diego Financial Aid office to apply for aid to be sent to a different UC campus.

• How do I know if I qualify for aid?

Students enroll in summer courses, and the Financial Aid Office will automatically calculate an award. Students can accept the award or not accept the award for Summer courses. If students do not accept the award, they should drop their course to make space for another student to enroll in that course.

Since Summer Session staff do not have access to Financial Aid records, please visit the Financial Aid Office Summer Website for more information or to speak with a Financial Aid counselor.

Will tuition & fees be different since classes are remote?

No, tuition & fees remain the same. You can view the tuition and fees for Summer Session 2022 on the Tuition & Payment page. 

Will I need to pay campus-based fees for online courses?

Yes. All courses incur Campus-Based Fee charges. This applies to courses not offered on campus - study abroad, online, etc.

Campus-based fees support campus services, maintain facilities, and broadly support and preserve the campus infrastructure. As campus operations adjust to the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, our dedicated team of professionals remains committed to delivering the highest quality service possible. Campus-based fees will continue to be collected and will not be refunded.

Consistent with guidance from the UC Office of the President, for all enrolled students, tuition and fees remain unchanged as the campus remains operational.

Will I need to check-in on campus if this is my first quarter at UCSD?

No, you are not required to check in. You can find more information on the New Triton page. 

Will I need a campus ID card if I am taking classes remotely?

No, you do need a campus ID. However, if you would like your ID you can access an electronic version via the UC San Diego Mobile App. For more information, visit How to get your first ID card.
