SUMMER FINANCIAL AID

A student who wishes to receive summer financial aid at Tyler Junior College must complete the following:

• FAFSA - (if you received aid for the past Fall/Spring at TJC-you have already completed this step.)
• Register for all Summer/May-Mester classes. (Minimum of 6 hours required - you can combine terms. For example: register for 6 hours in a single term or 3 hours each in two terms.)
• Complete TJC Summer Financial Aid Application
  (This will only be available ONLINE until July 15, 2005.)

SUMMER FUNDING CONSIDERATIONS

Funds are awarded in the following order:

1. Pell (for those students who have remaining funds. Example: did not attend in the Fall but attended in the Spring - Fall is your remaining amount. Students who were funded for full-time hours in the Fall and Spring will not have remaining funds.)
2. All other grants - Federal and State awarded to Pell eligible and TJC regular students only. (A regular TJC student is a student who has attended the previous Spring semester or who plans to attend the subsequent Fall semester).

Funds are not paid into the student account until the student has actually begun attendance for the sixth hour. Students who use a combined term enrollment for funding will be responsible for charges in the first term of enrollment.

REQUIREMENTS:

1. Have a completed 2004-2005 folder on file in the Financial Aid office.
2. Be registered for summer classes. With a minimum of 6 total credit hours.
3. Submit a summer aid application that is available at finaid.tjc.edu
4. You must get a response telling you Thank you for submitting your application. We will notify you by mail and or you can check your campus connect account screen.
5. Must not be on financial aid suspension.

NOTE: If you were awarded summer aid and were then placed on suspension due to your Spring grades, your financial aid award will be removed!
