Viewing the College Financing Plan

Access the Financial Aid Self Service Award Summary page (Campus Community, and then Student Services Center, and then View Financial Aid link, and then 20XX (award year) link, and then College Financing Plan link).

This example illustrates the fields and controls on the Self Service with College Financing Plan Link Example.

Self Service with College Financing Plan Link Example

The College Financing Plan link is available to students on the Financial Aid Award Summary page in Financial Aid Self Service. Display of the Financial Aid Award Summary page is controlled by the Financial Aid Self Service Inquiry Options. On the Inquiry Options page in the Display Data group box, the Award Detail check box must be selected for students to have access to the Financial Aid Award Summary page, and, therefore, their College Financing Plans. The College Financing Plan link appears whether you choose to display Award Detail by Aid Year or Award Period.

Note:

The College Financing Plan link displays in this same location if you choose the 'Allow display with no awards' option on the Group Options page.

Note:

Students must have a College Financing Plan group assigned to have a College Financing Plan to link to from Financial Aid Self Service.
