Were you able to indicate that you were a TRANSFER student on the NPC?

Where is your cal grant?

I hope that you haven’t cut ties with your CSU. Have you?

BTW…that is for one semester. Your situation would be WORSE for next year.

Schools like USD do NOT have the funds for low income students.

Your CSU was affordable because tuition is low, you got a cal grant that covered all of the tuition, and a Pell Grant to cover books, etc.

Tuition at USD is very high, a Cal Grant doesn’t put much of a dent in it, and neither does a Pell Grant.
