Financial Aid

Students who already receive financial aidmay petition their campus financial aid office to have their aid package adjusted to reflect the cost of living in Sacramento. Once accepted into the program Scholar Interns are strongly urged to meet with a staff member from their home campus Financial Aid Office to determine their financial aid and eligibility. Summer financial aid is also different from campus to campus, so please check with your financial aid officer early!

Scholar Interns live as a community in the Adagio Apartments, located 10 minutes by bus or car from downtown Sacramento. The facilities are wonderful and fully furnished -- with four students per two bedroom apartment unit. More details here!

For students who would find this to be an undue hardship, it is possible to submit a Housing Exemption Request form with the application package.
