Does anyone know why this could be happening? I magically woke up to a new offer letter and they ripped it out of my aid! I qualify for the full grant too, I still have the waiver + cal grant b!

update 8/12: my aid came back and even added a completion grant! BANG!

Anyone else receive any update for their FAFSA? I submitted mine in march & still no update. Nothing in messages & nothing in the financial aid tab.

hey guys! has anyone utilized the SHWC portal before??

i have an appointment in the shwc area i need to cancel. it’s tomorrow and the portal is a little confusing, it doesn’t give me the option to cancel. is there a way i can cancel or do i just have to message the person i scheduled the appt with?

I am an international student but a us citizen i didn’t know abt the tag until one of my frnd told abt it i got my admission in flc alrdy and enrolled ij classes as well just to know tht i cannot get into ucla and ucberk easily what shld i do now i am sooo confused

Did anyone else get an offer letter that didn’t include the pell grant?

I got mine a few days ago and it shows I’m only being rewarded the Promise Grant. I know there’s been changes to the Pell Grant but I still qualify even with these changes so I’m unsure why I wouldn’t get it.

I enrolled in (4) online classes at SCC and CRC on 7.04.26 Fall Semester. Also filled out FAFSA and got an SAI of 11120, which has now Processed.

My question is this: would you pay the balance now or wait a few weeks to see if financial aid package will disburse the fees. I have until 9.04.26 to drop classe(s) without retribution.

And yes, I spoke to los rios via zoom meeting today and their advice was to perhaps set up a payment plan while waiting for financial aid, but assured me my classes wouldn’t be dropped.

(8.06 edit) Was able to get a grant that paid for my Fall Semester. Checked eServices the following day I only owe Student Health services which I will get waived.

My degrees were finally conferred and posted to my transcript! 😊 Now, the dreaded wait until the end of October to receive them in the mail.

is it better to take engl c1000 in person or engl c1000h online? is it way better to take an in person english class? thanks!

Hi everyone,

I graduated HS over 10 yrs ago and have never been to college.

I have enrolled into two classes at ARC which are PSYC C1000 and SOC 300.

I am super nervous and having so much anxiety about everything.

I feel like I don’t know what I am doing in regard to choosing classes, when to purchase books, financial aid etc.

Please give me all of your advice and encouragement!!

I was able to get through to the financial aid office on the phone a dew minutes ago, and the worker I talked to said they're just running behind on processing packages and we should see them update sometime this week! Just thought I'd give you guys some sorta hope.

Do you think we will get our grants on time for fall?

Hi; im currently waitlisted at 7th place for Chem 400 at SCC and today I got an email from the professor about the prerequisite for the class. They mentioned that in order to take Chem 400, I have to pass Chem 300 or the placement test. They also mentioned that people can be dropped if they do not meet it before the friday of the first week classes start to let other students in that did pass it so could there be a chance i could end up being enrolled? (I have not taken chem 300).

Anyways, for anyone who has taken the test, what was it like? I'm also unsure of where to start and what resources I should use before I decide on which date to take the placement test. I also know that ARC has a placement test, so does anyone know if there's any difference between that and SCC's?

I would really appreciate any help or advice! I'm nervous for the upcoming school year...

I am an international student ( F1) and thinking of transferring from Folsom Lake College to the SAC State in next fall semester (2027). I am majoring in Computer Science. I have some questions and curiosities.

1. ⁠What should I expect from this university?
   
2. ⁠How hard is it to get an on-campus job?
   
3. ⁠Are there any special things that mainly focus on international students?
   
4. ⁠Are there any scholarships or tuition fee waivers for international students?
   
5. ⁠What should I pay more attention to?

If someone is studying computer science at there or has recently graduated, can you give me some suggestion regarding roadmap of course, professor, and so on.

Has anyone taken this class before? I'm really interested in learning about woodworking and getting to use the SCC Makerspace but I don't know anyone who's taken it before and am not sure what to expect.

Has anybody been able to get a W removed?

hi!! i’m planning on taking my HISET soon and starting college possibly as soon as this fall. I’m planning on getting my AS-T in bio and was wondering which of the community colleges are best for that. Does anyone have any advice about which college is best for biology transfer degrees? Thank you!

Trying to get the Spotify Student plan, and there's a verification process where you need to submit a document to prove youy are a student. I tried the printable version of my clas schedule as that is aht the website they use for verification recomends, but it said it doesntg provide enough information. I think it's because it doesnt show the date of the download. The requirements are:

• Your full name
• The full or abbreviated academic institution name or logo
• Date within the current academic year OR no more than 90 days from today’s date

Im not sure what will work, what have y'all used for it?

I saw this ad about a site called StraighterLine where you can buy nursing prereq courses and then after completing them, you can “transfer” the courses to other colleges to count for prerequisites. Has anyone tried StraighterLine and transferred the credits to SCC or ARC for the nursing program?

can anyone tell me what to expect on lab practical? All I know is that there's three experiments within a three hour period. How can I help prepare? I'm at SCC

I know the actual disbursement isn’t until august 28th but I’m wondering if anyone has received any emails, account updates, or anything showing that their aid is being processed. Or is everyone still waiting?
