If you are classified as a California Resident, you may be eligible to have your enrollment
fees and health fees waived (eliminated) by the state of California. You may be eligible
for this fee waiver even if you are not eligible for any other financial assistance.
The CCPG waives your enrollment fee and reduces the health fee and parking. You are
responsible for paying these and any additional fees. Assistance granted under this fee waiver DOES NOT need to be paid back.
You may apply for the CCPG at any time during the academic year, but no later than
June 15. The application period begins with the Summer session and you must reapply
each year. There is no minimum or maximum unit requirement for you to apply for the fee waiver. You may apply whether enrolled in 1 unit or 18 units.
*Note: Students who are exempt from paying nonresident tuition under Education Code
Section 68130.5 (AB540) are not current California residents.
