If you’re using Financial Aid to pay for your classes, the Financial Aid Office must receive and process your FAFSA/CADA. This includes all requests for documents.
California residents who submit a FAFSA/CADA are reviewed immediately to determine if they are eligible for a CCPG which will waive tuition. Check your CCPG award in
If you are receiving a scholarship, you can verify your award by checking your financial award within your MySierra.
The Nelnet Tuition Plan allows you to divide your tuition costs into monthly payments. Nelnet is not a loan program, has no interest, and does not require a credit check. You can set up automatic payments from a checking or savings account, or your credit card. The cost to participate is $20 per semester.
To manage your payment plan, go to mySierra, click "Pay for Classes/1098-T Tax Forms", then select "Setup/Manage Payment Plan."
Payment plans can be set up when you register for classes. The last opportunity to set up a payment plan for the current semester will be within the first month of the semester. The summer term has a much earlier deadline.
Check with the Bursar’s Office for specific dates.
If you are a new student applying for Chapter 31 (Voc Rehab) or Chapter 33 (Post 9-11), you need to complete the intake process with the Sierra College Veterans Success Center before registering for classes.
The Bursar’s Office must receive and process your authorization letter at least two weeks before you register for classes. If processing is not complete, pay for your tuition and you will receive a refund once your contract is processed.
