Pepperdine Institutional grant assistance does not increase to meet the higher costs of tuition, room and board. However, loan eligibility will increase as the budget increases as long as the student qualifies.
Students who decide to live off-campus must first obtain permission from the Housing and Community Living Office. 
Your financial assistance award will be the same whether you live on or off campus. If you have financial assistance in excess of your tuition charges, you may receive that money back from your student account and you may use it to pay for your off-campus housing. You may request one refund per semester. You must complete your financial assistance file by July 1 to have all of your financial assistance here by the start of classes in August. No refunds will be issued from your student account until all of your financial assistance funds have paid. Additionally, it may take from 2 to 5 days to issue a refund from your account so you should come to school prepared to pay your first month's living expenses out-of-pocket.
Financial assistance will be pro-rated to reflect the student's adjusted tuition charges. If the student drops below half time (6 units) he or she may become ineligible for Institutional aid and Federal loans which will immediately go into their grace period.

Yes, if tax returns are not available at the time you complete your FAFSA form, you must use estimated figures to complete and submit the form by February 15. Do not wait until tax returns have been filed to complete your FAFSA form. You should estimate your financial information as accurately as possible because verification may result in an estimated notification being considerably less. Federal aid will not be disbursed to the student's account until the actual taxes have been verified by a Financial Assistance Advisor.
The custodial parent is responsible for providing his/her tax and household information.
Approximately 2 to 4 weeks after you submit your FAFSA on the web, you should receive a Student Aid Report (SAR) by e-mail (if you provided an e-mail address) or in the mail. This report will reflect all the information you completed on the FAFSA and will enable Pepperdine to determine your eligibility for financial assistance. Pepperdine will receive your FAFSA data electronically if you listed our school name and school code 001264 in the "Information Release" section of your FAFSA.
Add our Pepperdine University school code (001264) to your list of schools via FAFSA on the web, before the deadline of February 15
This usually occurs if the processor was unable to read some of the information you submitted on the FAFSA, or if it was not electronically signed. First, you should go through the form and correct or complete all of the items you are requested to verify. Second, you should make a photocopy of the correction pages. Finally, you should send the changes via FAFSA on the web or mail the original, corrected copy back to the federal processor for processing.

The California Student Aid Commission (CSAC) will mail out notifications to the students in May. Usually, we will send out our new student award notifications before then and will have estimated a Cal Grant as part of their financial assistance package if we determine they are eligible to receive it. This award is not official until confirmation has been received by CSAC and we verify the student's financial information.
Students are only required to complete the GPA Verification Form initially when applying for a Cal Grant. Once they have received a Cal Grant, it will automatically be renewed each year, provided they complete the FAFSA, demonstrate need, and maintain at least a 2.00 GPA.
We have several outside scholarship books in our office that student's can review. In addition, we have a scholarship information sheet on how to apply for outside scholarships. You may also research scholarships on the internet at fastweb.com and finaid.org.
They should send us a copy of the letter that they received from the organization. Outside scholarships will be coordinated with need-based aid.
They should speak with the chairperson of their major about scholarships. Click here for more information.
Scholarship and grant funds provided by the University may not in themselves, or when combined with state grants, exceed the cost of tuition. The scholarship will be applied to the student's federal unmet need and any remaining scholarship money will go to reduce their loans and/or work.
