Applying for Financial Aid at a Glance

Step 1: Apply for Financial Aid

  • The FAFSA Priority deadline is March 2nd for the incoming academic school year. However, students may always apply after the priority deadline.  Example: For the FAFSA 2010-2011, the priority deadline will be March 2, 2010.

  • Make sure to include the Federal School Code (Chabot: 001162) and provide accurate income information.

  • Make sure that you electronically sign your FAFSA by using your Federal FAFSA Pin.

  • It will take the Department of Education about 2-3 weeks to send us your financial aid information. We will only receive it, if you placed our Federal School Code in your FAFSA application.

    Step 2: If attending Chabot College, set up your Refund Preference

  • All new financial applicants who select Chabot College as a school, will be required to set their Refund Preference via the Chabot Debit Card.  Do not throw away the card! simply, visit www.chabotdebitcard.com  to activate your preference.
