Payment

Payment Options

Financial Aid 

Financial aid programs provide support for students to help meet the costs of obtaining a college education. Funding for such programs is provided by the federal and state governments, the individual colleges and universities, and a variety of other public and private sources. With the exception of some scholarships, everyone must use the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA®) to apply for aid.


Third Party Payment

Third Party Payments of tuition and fees may be received from an Employer, Military, Department of Vocational Rehabilitation or other.  To initiate this form of payment, please contact the CEGE  Financial Services Department prior to the semester. 

  • Veterans Success Center - For more information regarding VA Educational Benefits, please contact the Veterans Success Center at (909) 537-5195 or at vsc@csusb.edu. 

Self-Payment

Tuition and fee payments are made through the financial assessment of the individual.


Installment Payment Plan (IPP)

CSUSB - CEGE offers enrolled students standard payment plans each term to students who are in good financial standing with the University.  The IPP agreement allows students to pay tuition in up to four installments over the duration of the course.

Financial Aid

All students are encouraged to submit a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) as soon as they apply for the program, and are encouraged to visit the CSUSB Financial Aid Website. 

How It Works

Financial aid programs provide support for students to help meet the costs of obtaining a college education. Funding for such programs is provided by the federal and state governments, the individual colleges and universities, and a variety of other public and private sources.

  • Prepare: Familiarize yourself with the types of aid available, how much aid you'll need, and whether you're eligible.
  • Apply: With the exception of some scholarships, everyone must use the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA®) to apply for aid. When you're ready to apply, fill out the online FAFSA®.
  • Receive: The Department of Education will inform you and CSUSB about your Expected Family Contribution (EFC). Then, CSUSB will tell you how much and what types of aid you qualify for. Check your CSUSB email often - this is the mode by which we communicate with you.
  • Repay: If your aid is in the form of loans, become familiar with the repayment process. Loans are legal obligations, so before you take out a student loan, think about the amount you'll have to repay over the years.

Categories

Financial aid is split up into two categories based on the reason the money is awarded. 

  • Achievement-based aid is awarded to students who have a special characteristic, skill, talent, or ability. Typically achievement-based aid is in the form of scholarships.
  • Need-based aid is provided to students who demonstrate financial need. Most financial aid, particularly public-funded aid, is awarded on the basis of financial need determined through the application process and in accordance with a prescribed federal formula.

There are 4 Basic Types of Financial Aid Programs Available

  • GRANTS: Federal or state gift assistance with no obligation for work or repayment
  • LOANS: Providing funds now, but with a future repayment obligation
  • SCHOLARSHIPS: Gift assistance with no obligation for work or repayment
  • WORK-STUDY: Part-time work while attending the institution

Most often, financial aid will come to you in the form of a package consisting of a combination of the different types of aid available. The combination of aid offered depends on the availability of funds, your eligibility, the timeliness with which the application process is completed, and your year in school.

Financial Aid Advisor and CEGE Liaison

CEGE is a self-support degree program and students may have limited eligibility for certain types of Federal and California State student aid.

Students are encouraged to reach out to the program's Financial Aid Advisor and CEGE Liaison, Nicolette Cusino, at (909) 537-5220 or at nicolette.cusino@csusb.edu to discuss their specific situations.
