Federal regulations allow students to receive federal financial aid only from the institution where they are enrolled in and pursuing an eligible program of study. Students who indicate they will earn their degree or certificate from, or transfer to, an institution other than Glendale Community College may be required to complete the Status Change form. If you are completing your educational goal at another institution, you are not eligible to receive federal financial aid at GCC.
