Direct Loan Program
Information
Community Colleges in
California remain an affordable option for students to receive their
education.
Chabot College is a low-cost public
institution with limited entrance requirements.
The enrollment fee waiver (California
College Promise Grant, formerly known as BOG) and
grant assistance (PELL) typically covers the cost of education at
Chabot College.
However, some students (out of state
residents, for example) may need to borrow money to help with school
related expenses.
Typically, a student who needs to borrow
money to get through school is making a good investment for the
future.
Unfortunately, many students enter into debt
without a clear picture of how it will affect them in the future.
Therefore, the Financial Aid Office does not award student loans as
part of the "award package" in our initial review for financial aid
eligibility.
Students who are interested in borrowing
a federal student loan at Chabot College are required to submit a
completed Direct Loan Application Form to the Chabot College
Financial Aid Office.
We are dedicated to supporting student success –
our goal is to help our students develop a realistic educational
borrowing plan to ensure that those who plan to transfer will have
sufficient loan eligibility remaining to complete their education,
and those whose plans conclude with a certificate or associate
degree will not be overly burdened with student loan debt.
