Advisement
One of the first things you should do before registering for classes is make an appointment to meet with an advisor. The GateWay advisors assist students with the following:• Explorationofeducationalandlifegoals
• Academicandoccupationalprograms
• Selectionandsequencingofcourses
• Universitytransferoptions• Informationoncampusresourcesandservices
All new students are required to take placement tests for Math, English and Reading in the Testing Center prior to an advisement visit. Test results and any transcripts or grade reports of prior coursework along with any information from past advisement sessions should be brought to advisement every visit. Study your degree requirements in the General Catalog, become familiar with the class schedule and, if possible, make a list of courses you wish to take. The advisor will assist you in the formation of your educational plan.
It is essential that you be an active participant in planning your education because the ultimate responsibility for making decision about life goals and educational plans rests with you. The academic advisor assists by helping you identify and assess the alternatives and the consequences.

Finding Money to Finance CollegeYou’ve seen an advisor and you have your classes. How are you going to pay for it all?
You want to go to college so you can make a lot of money; however, you don’t have a lot of money, so you think you can’t go to college. Don’t believe it. You have just met the main requirements for getting federal student aid, so read on.
What is Financial Aid?
Student financial aid refers to funding intended to help students pay educational expenses at a college, university or private school. Nearly 70% of student financial aid is provided by the U.S. Department of Education’s Federal Student Aid program (around $70 billion every year).
Visit:www.gatewaycc.edu/ Pay/Financial/Aidfor more info.
Federal Pell Grants
Unlike loans, Pell Grants do not have to be paid back as long as the student attends college. The amount awarded is based on financial need and the student’s status as a full- or part-time student.
Federally Funded Campus-Based Aid Programs
Campus-based assistance like the Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant, Leveraging Educational Assistance Program, Federal Work-Study and Federal Perkins Loan programs are awarded based on financial need, other aid the student receives and the total availability of funds at the school. This aid is awarded on a “first come, first serve” basis, so filing early in the spring for the up coming academic year is advised.
Note: Getting one form of aid does not make you ineligible for others. Many students get a “package” mixing all three types of financial aid—scholarships, grants and loans.
Direct Loan Program
The government’s Direct Loan Program offers both subsidized and unsubsidized student loans.
Subsidized loans are awarded to students with financial need. All interest on subsidized loans is paid by the government while the student is actually enrolled at least half time and during certain periods, such as grace and deferment. Unsubsidized loans are available regardless of financial need. The student must pay all interest on unsubsidized loans. The PLUS program offers unsubsidized loans to parents of dependent students. The parents must pay all interest on PLUS loans.
Federal loans offer a great deal of flexibility and benefits for student borrowers. Amounts that can be borrowed, repayment options, and interest rates vary greatly and can be modified during the term of the loan.

Eligibility Requirements for Student Aid
Eligibility for federal student aid is determined on the basis of financial need and on several other factors. In order to be eligible for aid, you must:• havefinancialneed(exceptforcertainloans);
• haveahighschooldiploma,aGeneralEducationDevelopment(GED)certificateorpassatestapprovedbytheU.S.DepartmentofEducation;beworkingtowardadegreeorcertificate;
• beenrolledinaneligibleprogram;beaU.S.citizenoreligiblenon-citizen;haveavalidSocialSecurityNumber;registerwiththeSelectiveServiceifrequired;andmaintainsatisfactoryacademicprogressonceinschool.
Scholarship Assistance
Scholarships are the ideal form of student aid and are often considered “gift” aid as they never have to be repaid and are an excellent way to fill the gap between your need and the college financial aid package.
GateWay offers a number of institutional, Maricopa County Community College District (MCCCD) foundation and private scholarships throughout the year.
All scholarship applications and information that available received by or through GateWay will appear on GateWay’s website.www.gatewaycc.edu/ Pay/Scholarships
Process
To apply for student financial aid from the federal government, you will need to fill out and submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).
The form can be found at www.fafsa.ed.gov which will take you through every step of the process and provides all the information you need to apply for federal student aid. There is no charge for submitting this form.
The application will be processed by the federal student aid processor and a Student Aid Report will be electronically delivered to you and the school(s) listed on the application.
This may take as long as four weeks before the institution receives a response.
The average time line from application to award is six to eight weeks.
If any additional documentation is needed GateWay will contact you via your my.maricopa.edu stundet center.
Once complete, your application will be awarded and you will be notified of your award. All information requested and awards made at GateWay will appear on your Student Service Center located at:

Rent-A-Text
Students have the option to participate in the new Rent-A-Text program and save up to 50% on textbooks upfront by renting rather than purchasing their books.
Whether students shop online or in the campus bookstore the program allows the student to select their book–new or used–and rent it based on the price of a new book. For example, if a new book originally costs $100, then the rental fee is only $45. Students are then asked to return the book before the last day of the semester.
In order to rent a textbook through the bookstore, which is operated by Follett, a student must be 18 years old with a major credit card. The credit card number is kept on file for collateral, but the students may pay for their rental books using credit cards, cash or financial aid.
Students under age 18 can have their parent rent books for
them. Although all textbooks are not available for rent, the bookstore currently has 95 titles available for the rental program and the list continues to grow.
For more information, contact the bookstore at (602) 286-8400 or stop by while on campus. The bookstore is located
on the first floor of the Main Building in room MA1200. Students can preregister and find more rental information at www.rent-a-text.com.
