Once this application has been submitted, there can be no adjustments.
Your initial Financial Aid award is based on the courses you indicate on Page 4 of the Summer Financial Aid application. You may end up taking other courses than those listed; however, please be aware your financial aid may be adjusted. If you have not registered for at least 6 hours (3 credit hours as a graduate student) by the end of drop/add for Summer Session II, your aid will be canceled. If you are in fewer courses than listed on your application, your aid will be reduced.
Full time 12+ credit hours
Three-Quarter time 9-11 credit hours
Half time 6-8 credit hours
Less than half time 1-5 credit hours
Full time 6 or more credit hours
Half time 3 to 5 credit hours
Disbursement depends on the number of sessions in which you are enrolled, the number of hours for which you enroll each session, and the type of financial aid you are awarded. In many cases, financial aid will be disbursed after Summer Session II classes begin.
Under most circumstances, you may be awarded aid for the Summer term but not be able to receive any funds until the beginning of Summer Session II. Please refer to “Types of Aid Available” for important details regarding disbursement of funds.
Grants and scholarships generally are not available for Summer Session. Financial assistance for summer usually consists of federal student loans or PLUS loans for parents of dependent students.
Not all students will be able to borrow loans during the summer. Federal student loans are limited to an academic year maximum and the Summer term is part of the current (2022-23) academic year. The Financial Aid Office will inform you of your eligibility. You must be enrolled at least half time (see enrollment requirements above) in order to borrow federal student and PLUS Loans.
The number of sessions and credit hours for which you enroll will determine when you have access to loan funds. To receive loan funds at the beginning of the first session, you must only be enrolled during Summer Session I, and you must be enrolled in at least 6 credit hours as an undergraduate student or 3 credit hours as a graduate student.
If you will be enrolled less than half time for the first session, or are enrolled in both sessions, you will not have access to your loan funds until after drop/add of Summer Session II. Your hours for both sessions combined must equal at least half-time status.
The Financial Aid Office will determine if you have any Pell Grant eligibility. You do not have to be enrolled at least half time to receive a federal Pell Grant, but you must meet other eligibility requirements.
Pell Grant funds will be available after drop/add of Summer Session II. Until your funds are disbursed, you will be responsible for paying all expenses (such as books, rent, living expenses) other than those directly billed to you by Salem College.
Book vouchers are not available for summer school.
Federal Work-Study funds are not available during the summer.
