Awards for Pell Grant and/or Cal Grant reflect an amount based on 12 units or more. Units will be checked 7-10 days before each disbursement date. If you are enrolled/attending less than 12 units, your award amount will be adjusted accordingly. Please refer to the Financial Aid Enrollment Policy for details. If your file is not completed and finalized 7-10 days before the disbursement date, an alternative disbursement date will be assigned. In addition, your grants will not disburse until your classes have started.

*Disbursement of the Cal Grant award is contingent upon the receipt of the funds by the college.

2. When FRC completes processing of the loan
3. Loans for first-time borrowers cannot disburse until you have been enrolled for 30 days in your first semester
4. Loans for a single semester are required to disburse in two parts, the second disbursement occurs after the half-way point of the semester
5. When you are enrolled in six or more units

Important! The disclosure statement you receive from Direct Loans once we have originated your loan provides two dates that are not accurate as to when you will receive your loan disbursement from FRC.
