Student Responsibilities

It is the student's responsibility to:

• Accurately complete and submit all applications (including the FAFSA form) by the required deadlines. 

• Promptly respond to requests for additional required documentation. 

• Avoid intentional misreporting of information on financial aid. 

• Read, understand and retain copies of ALL forms you sign and submit. 

• Read, understand and accept responsibility for all agreements you sign. 

• Review and understand all information about your program of study prior to enrollment. 

• Understand and comply with all requirements of Pacifica, federal and non-federal financial aid programs. 

• Be continuously enrolled for consecutive quarters; i.e., not have a break in enrollment (e.g.; leave of absence) for sequential continuation of financial aid. 

• Complete the required Entrance Counseling session prior to the receipt of the first loan disbursement. 

• Complete the required Exit Counseling session prior to leaving Pacifica (i.e., upon completion of degree requirements or prior to leave of absence). 

• Notify the administrative offices at Pacifica and Stafford/Alternative Loan lenders of all changes to address, phone, email address, and enrollment status.  Failure to notify the Financial Aid Office may result in delayed processing of financial aid.
