2024-25 Financial Aid Year Updates

As Clark College is preparing to welcome students for Summer Quarter, we want to share with you an estimated timeline for 2024-25 financial aid processing. 

As you may have heard, the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) has been updated at the federal level, with fewer questions to answer and more students now eligible for Pell Grant.  

These changes have affected processing times for financial aid at colleges throughout the country. Please note the following updates:

  • If you are planning to start summer or fall term, register for classes as soon as possible.
  • Students enrolled in summer term will have priority processing. Applications will be reviewed in the order received, and you will receive an offer of financial aid by email once your eligibility is determined.
  • If any information is needed before we can determine your eligibility, we will contact you at your preferred email and your Student Homepage in ctcLink.

Thank you for your understanding as we work diligently to provide timely financial aid as we adjust to new federal systems.
