How is the CSU assisting students who are experiencing delays in Cal Grant payments?
The CSU will defer State University Fee payments for the spring 2009 term for CSU students who experience delays receiving Cal Grants from the California Student Aid Commission. In addition, Cal Grant B recipients receive a stipend from the state. However, due to the states growing cash flow problem, CSU is not in a position to automatically cover these cash stipends to students. In these cases, Fresno State will try to provide short-term emergency loans to needy students on a case-by-case basis, provided students have exhausted alternative funding.
