Although subject to change, the program costs provided above exclude the cost of books and supplies. The ELJ Program is looking for scholarships to offer students who join the program. More information will be available soon on the types of scholarships the program will be able to offer.
Doctoral students are eligible for a William D. Ford Federal Direct Unsubsidized Loan that can range up to $20,500 annually, in addition to a Graduate PLUS Loan. Every student case is different. Students may begin the optional financial aid process by filing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Or use this link to begin: https://studentaid.gov/.
Students ineligible to complete the FAFSA application, but meet the AB540 criteria, may complete and submit a California Dream Act Application (CADAA).
Funds are awarded to eligible applicants on a first-come-first-served basis and the priority filing period usually October 1st - March 2nd each year for both the FAFSA and CADAA applications. Please note that for summer admission, which pertains to the CSUDH Program, you will need to complete TWO financial aid applications. One for the 2024–2025 academic year, which will cover the summer, and one for the 2025–2026 academic year. The deadline to complete the 2023–2024 FAFSA or CADAA application is June 30, 2024, but you are encouraged to complete it as soon as possible. All inquiries regarding financial aid should be directed to the Financial Aid & Scholarships Office.
