Course Exchanges and Financial Aid Disbursement

CVC Course Exchange Considerations:
- Due to the frequent adding/dropping of classes through the CA Virtual Campus (CVC) course exchange, misaligned term start/end dates, and additional staff workload, special provisions are in place.
Financial Aid Disbursement:
- Home College (LPC) Units:
  - Aid for units taken directly at Las Positas College will be disbursed on the normal published dates, pending eligibility and final completion.
- CVC (Teaching College) Units:
  - Aid for these units will be delayed until the LPC Financial Aid Office Freeze Date, which occurs at the mid-point of the term.
Additional Important Information:
- Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP):
  - SAP policy applies for determining payment eligibility.
- Full-Time Students:
  - Full-time students (enrolled in 12 units) do not receive additional payment beyond the standard disbursement.
- Cal Grant Recipients:
  - If you are a Cal Grant recipient, please contact our office for further assistance.
Fee Waiver Eligibility:
- Most students qualify for a fee waiver by applying for FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) or the Dream Act.
- Remember:
  - Add the Federal school code from any other schools to your financial aid application to ensure proper processing.
For More Information:
- If you are approved for or eligible for federal financial aid, please contact the Financial Aid Office for additional details.
