Application Procedure
For most student aid programs described in this section, students must
complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). This
application is available online at
. The Financial Aid Office
recommends that students apply online, which can significantly expedite
the process. Students may use computers in any of the computer labs on
campus to access the FAFSA if they do not have access to the Internet at
home. Make sure you list San Bernardino Valley College, school code
# 001272
on your FAFSA application to ensure your financial aid
information is sent to the SBVC Financial Aid Office. We cannot process
applications that do not list the correct federal school code.
Effective October 2016, applications for each new academic year will be
available online in October. Financial aid is not continued from one year to
the next, therefore students must complete the FAFSA each school year to
apply for financial aid.
Deadlines for the various programs may vary; therefore, students are
encouraged to visit the Financial Aid website at
early each January for updated
information and changes in regulations, policies or procedures.
