CSU EAP Important Information

Just a quick reminder regarding EAP "Conditional” seniors hoping to raise their Conditional status to Ready status: 

Both semesters (of an approved high school course) need to be passed with a grade "C" or higher.  "C-" is not acceptable.  If a senior receives a grade "C-" or lower in either semester, they need to register and take the placement test (ELM/EPT).  

April 18, 2014 is the registration deadline for May 3, 2014 placement (ELM/EPT) test.  Seniors need to test by May 3, 2014 as it is the last date that ELM/EPT will be administered for 2014 incoming freshman.  Registration information can be found at: http://www.csupomona.edu/~testcenter/tests/index.shtml. 

Below are links where you will find CSU approved English and math classes that satisfy "Conditional" status.  

Math:       http://www.csumathsuccess.org/hs_course_msw

English:     http://www.csuenglishsuccess.org/conditional_esw

If you have any question at all about your status, please see your counselor ASAP!  This is only for Seniors intending to go to a CSU school in the Fall.

Financial Aid

As of last week, 200 of our Seniors have been awarded a Cal Grant.  That is awesome!  Congratulations to these students.  They were awarded a Cal Grant simply by filing a FAFSA or Dream Act application by the March 2nd priority deadline.

 

Even though it's too late to qualify for a Cal Grant, you can still submit a FAFSA for Pell Grant and the BOG waiver(community college fee waiver).

 

Please do this a soon as possible so your financial aid is ready when you start school in the Fall.  Come see your counselor for help or with questions.
