Options to Receive Financial Aid Help         

1. Check the status of the Financial Aid Application in WebAdvisor (How-To Video)

4. Advisors for U.S. citizens or resident students who have undocumented parents/guardian(s): Grossmont:  nadia.almaguer@gcccd.edu | Cuyamaca:  pam.fleming@gcccd.edu

Note: The date the Financial Aid Department completes the review and determination processes of the file is the completion of The Promise requirement (not the date the Financial Aid Form was submitted). If the college code is not included in the Financial Aid Form, it will not be sent to the college.

Review of the Financial Aid file is a two-step review process:

     1. The Financial Aid application is submitted externally at completion and an email notification is sent.
     2. The Financial Aid application is routed to the college's Financial Aid Department if Grossmont College and/or Cuyamaca College are listed on the application. If the college is NOT included in the Financial Aid Form, it will not be sent to the colleges and The Promise requirement will NOT be met.

LATE SUBMISSION: If the Financial Aid Form is submitted externally (the first step) by the deadline, but the Financial Aid Department has not processed it (second step) by the deadline, students will receive a denial email from The Promise. Students will need to submit a General Petition Form for further review.

Submit Grossmont College General Petition Form to grossmont.petitions@gcccd.edu
