The Suite Life
Cal U has taken the lead in responding to the needs of today’s students, and we’ve completely redesigned our concept of residence life. Gone are the long hallways, cramped shared bedrooms and group bathrooms. Most students share a bathroom with only one other person and never more than three others. All residence halls are air conditioned and have state-of-the-art sprinkler systems. Although the halls are co-educational by floor or by wing, all suites are same-sex. Cal U provides a nonsmoking environment in all residence halls on campus. The six on-campus residence halls for men and women feature a variety of suite options. AMOUNG YOUR OPTIONS ARE:
EVERY RESIDENCE HALL PROVIDES: • Recreation room • Kitchen • Vending area • TV room with big-screen television • TV cable with free Beyond Basic service • Free local phone, caller ID, distinctive ringing, 3-way calling • Wi-Fi and wired Internet Service • Microwave • Laundry facilities • Computer lab • CalCard usage • Carpeting throughout • 24-hour digital video cameras at entrances and exits • Controlled access through CalCard and key • Non-smoking environment • Emergency phones at front entrances

SUMMER COLLEGE 9
Frequently Asked Questions How do I read a course description? The course listings are arranged to correspond to the information requested on the registration form. Simply follow across the page from left to right and record the data on the registration form. What does TBA mean? TBA means “to be announced.” For courses with a TBA listing, contact the professor or the department office for further information. How do I cancel my registration? To cancel a course registration you must notify the Office of Academic Records in person, or in writing by mail, or by e-mail from Cal U e-mail account to summer@calu.edu. The amount of your refund will be determined by the date that the notice is received (see refund information on page 47). Leaving a course, or not attending, without written notification does not constitute an official cancellation/withdrawal and will result in the assignment of an F grade and financial liability for tuition and fees. How do I drop a class? Students wishing to drop a course may do so online through the VIP Portal until the first day class begins by following the steps listed below. You also may drop a class by completing a schedule adjustment form and returning it to the Office of Academic Records (by mail, e-mail from Cal U email account to summer@calu.edu, or in person). You may drop a class online up to the first day of that class without financial or academic penalty. After class starts you must drop the class at the Office of Academic Records. The official drop date, for refund purposes, is determined by the date the schedule adjustment form is received. If you decide you don’t want to remain registered for a class after the first day of that class, you must follow the procedure for withdrawing from a course (refer to page 58). There is a financial, and (possibly an academic) penalty for withdrawals. The official Drop/Add Period is the first day of each session. To drop a course online at www.calu.edu, follow the steps listed below: • Log in to VIP Portal • Enter your Cal U Student ID Number and your password • Click the “Academic Info Tab”” • Choose “Drop/Add Classes” • Choose the Summer 2014 term from the drop down menu • Select the drop down box for course you would like to drop/submit You cannot drop your entire schedule online. That must be done in the office of Academic Records.

If I don’t pay my bill by the due date, will I be dropped from my classes? Don’t assume you have been dropped from your classes for nonpayment! Once you are registered for a class, you have incurred a financial obligation. If you choose not to attend, you must officially withdraw in writing (see page 47 for more information on the refund policy). You will be responsible for the bill if you do not officially cancel your registration. Am I eligible for a refund if I withdraw from a class? Depending on the date of the withdrawal, you may or may not be eligible for a partial refund. Please see the chart on page 47. For more specific information, contact the Office of the Bursar at 724-938-4431. How do I add a class?

How long do I have to withdraw from class? Once 67% of class time has elapsed, you may no longer withdraw. Are there any restrictions on courses I may take during Summer College? Some courses have prerequisites. These are listed in the course descriptions found near the end of the brochure.
Are there a maximum number of credits I can take during the summer? The maximum number of undergraduate credits you can take in the summer is 18 without a signed overload form. However, you will also need an overload form if you would like to take more than 9 credits at any one time (or in overlapping sessions). You may obtain this form from the Office of Academic Records or any of the undergraduate college deans’ offices. How do I challenge a course for credit? • Obtain a Course Challenge Form from the Academic Records Office, Room 122, Dixon Hall • Obtain written permission from the chairperson of the department that offers the course • Register for the course and pay tuition and fees for the course • Only grades of P (Pass) or F (Fail) will be recorded • For more information, contact the Academic Records Office at 724-938-4434 How do I audit a class? Auditing a class means that you will receive no grade or credit for the course being audited. To audit a course you need to complete the Authorization to Audit Form, which can be obtained from the Office of Academic Records by calling 724-938-4434. This must be done prior to the start of the class. Can I repeat a course? Yes, any course taken at California University may be repeated.

Step-by-Step For-Credit Internship Process Take the following steps to ensure you receive credit for your internship:
1. Analyze yourself. Identify your skills, define your career goals, and determine what you want to gain from an internship.
2. Contact your faculty adviser to determine your eligibility. (Such as prerequisites completed, department grade-point average requirement, etc.). You can also discuss possible internship placements.
7. Complete the five online orientations required for interns. See the Internship Center webpage for details. 8. Complete the online application and student agreement. An application and student agreement are available on InternLink. Fill out all of the necessary information and click “Finish.” The application will then be automatically e-mailed to the necessary individuals for approvals. You will then be registered for your internship through Academic Affairs.
3. If you plan to use financial aid, contact the Financial Aid Office for assistance. (Complete your FAFSA [www.fafsa.ed.gov] form as early as possible!)
4. Create a student profile with the
Internship Center’s InternLink system at www.myinterfase.com/cup/student/home.aspx. Through InternLink, you can view posted internships, upload your resume so employers can view it, visit the electronic resource library, and complete your online internship application.
5. Complete your resume and cover letter. Visit Career Services for resources to help you and to schedule a resume and cover letter review and mock interview. Once you are satisfied, upload your resume into your InternLink student profile.
6. Gather information and locate an internship site. Talk to faculty, students,
family and friends about internship possibilities. Contact the Internship Center. Research sites to determine the availability of internships and contact persons. Once you have identified a possible site, discuss this with your faculty adviser. NOTE: Some departments identify sites and place students rather than students finding internships on their own. Check with your adviser.

If you plan to graduate before the spring, you will need to submit a Stafford Loan Adjustment form to the Financial Aid Office in order to reallocate your loans. You can access this form from our office or by downloading it from our website, www.calu.edu/financial-aid.
Loans Federal Direct Stafford Loan
The Federal Direct Stafford Loan is a fixed rate education loan designed for both undergraduate and graduate students. The current fixed interest rate is 3.867% (undergraduate students) and 5.417% (graduate students.) The current origination fees are 1.051%. Rates and fees are subject to change each July. This loan is both funded and insured by the federal government. There are two types of Stafford Loans: Subsidized and Unsubsidized. Depending on financial need, a student may be eligible for one or both loans. The school will determine the loan type for which the student is qualified. Federal Direct Subsidized Stafford Loan: Awarded on the basis of financial need and available to undergraduate students only. The government pays the interest while the student is in school, in deferment, and during the grace period before repayment begins. Federal Direct Unsubsidized Stafford Loan: Available to all students regardless of need. Student is responsible for all interest that accrues while they are in school, in deferment, and during their grace period. Listed below are the steps in the Stafford Loan processing cycle: Step 1: File the 2014-2015 FAFSA on the Web. Information contained on the 2014-2015 FAFSA is used to determine the student’s Federal Direct Stafford Loan eligibility for the 2014 Summer Semester. Step 2: The Financial Aid Office will determine your Federal Direct Stafford Loan eligibility. If you have not completed a Federal Direct Stafford Loan Master Promissory Note (MPN) before, you must proceed to Step 3 in order to finalize your Federal Direct Stafford Loan. Step 3: Electronically complete your Federal Direct Stafford Loan MPN by logging on to studentloans.gov. Select “Sign Master Promissory Note,” and complete all steps. You will need your Federal Student Aid PIN number to complete this requirement.
.
50 CALIFORNIA UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA
Please Note: The MPN only needs to be completed once every 10 years as long as you remain an active student. Step 5: You will also need to complete Federal Direct Stafford Loan Entrance Counseling if you are a first-time borrower. Log onto studentloans.gov and select Entrance Counseling and follow the steps listed. Step 6: Your loan proceeds will be sent directly to the school by the U.S. Department of Education and will be credited to your account. Important Reminders: • Stafford Loan monies borrowed during the 2014 Summer Semester will reduce the student’s loan eligibility for the Fall 2014 and/or Spring 2015 semester(s). • Undergraduate students must be enrolled in at least six credits during the summer semester to receive Stafford loans. Graduate students must be enrolled for at least five credits. (See Financial Aid Disbursement for more details). • As specified by federal law, students cannot exceed the aggregate (total loan amounts) loan limits of $31,000 (dependent undergraduate students), $57,500 (independent undergraduate students) or $138,500 (graduate students) for the Federal Stafford Loan Program.
Federal Direct PLUS Loan/ Graduate PLUS Loan
The Parent Loan for Undergraduate Students (PLUS) is a credit-worthy fixed rate loan for the parent or legal guardian of a dependent student or graduate student who needs additional assistance to cover his/her educational costs. The current fixed interest rate is 6.417% and the current origination fees are 4.204%. Rates and fees are subject to change each July. Graduate PLUS borrowers should consider the Federal Direct Stafford Loan before borrowing funds from the PLUS Program. Parent(s) of a dependent student or a graduate student can request up to the cost of education less all other financial aid received. Repayment normally begins within 60 days after the second disbursement of this loan. The U.S. Department of Education is the lender for this loan and will determine (based on credit approval) whether or not they will fund this loan. Listed below are the steps in the PLUS Loan processing cycle:
Step 1: Complete Federal Direct PLUS Loan/Graduate PLUS Loan Application at studentloans.gov. A credit check will be performed by the Department of Education and we will be notified of the loan’s approval/denial. Step 2: If approved, please complete a PLUS Loan Master Promissory Note also at studentloans.gov. You will need your Federal Student Aid PIN to sign the promissory note. The Financial Aid office will determine the amount of your eligibility for those who qualify and transmit the information to the Direct Loan processor. Step 3: The U.S. Department of Education will electronically transmit the Federal PLUS Loan funds to California University of Pennsylvania. If your PLUS loan application is DENIED, the undergraduate student may be eligible to borrow additional loan funds through the Federal Direct Unsubsidized Stafford Loan program. Annual loan eligibility is determined by the student’s academic grade level and remaining Stafford Loan eligibility. During the freshman and sophomore year a student can receive up to $4,000 a year while a junior or senior student can receive up to $5,000 a year. This additional money will automatically be added to the student’s Unsubsidized loan. Federal Direct PLUS Loan Endorser A PLUS Loan borrower may obtain an “Endorser/Co-signer” for the loan if they are ineligible because of an adverse credit history. The Endorser must be a creditworthy U.S. citizen or eligible noncitizen.
Alternative Loans In addition to the Federal loan programs, there are also private sources of educational loans. These loans are sponsored by banks, state agencies or private guarantors and are available to credit-worthy students. Since these loans are not subsidized by the federal government, they are usually higher-cost loans (higher interest rate) to the borrower and should only be considered as a last resort after all other financial aid options have been explored. Most alternative loans require a co-signer. Repayment of principal and interest may be deferred in most cases. Please view our website for an alphabetically arranged, comprehensive list of alternative loan products that California University of Pennsylvania students have utilized within the past three years. If you plan to apply for any alternative loan, please be sure to contact the lender directly. California University of Pennsylvania and the Financial Aid Office do not endorse, promote, or recommend any of the loan products listed and their inclusion on this page is strictly informational. We process our alternative loans through ELM, a third party organization. In order to expedite the process, please send an e-mail to finaid@calu.edu with notification of your approval.
Borrowers are encouraged to review the terms and conditions of each program prior to selecting a lender. You are not required to borrow from one of the loan programs listed on our website. Your choice of a lender other than those listed will not result in the denial or a delay of processing. Upon application, the lender of your choice will forward a certification request to the Financial Aid Office.
Grants The summer semester is considered the beginning of the financial aid award year; therefore, students must complete the 2014-2015 FAFSA Form for the 2014 Summer Semester in order to be eligible for PHEAA and Pell Grants. Only undergraduate students are eligible to receive grants. PHEAA Grant A PHEAA Summer State Grant Application is required. This application can be completed online at the following PHEAA website: www.pheaa.org. The deadline for submission is August 13, 2014. Students must register for at least 12 credits in order to be eligible for the maximum PHEAA Grant. Some students may be eligible for a reduced PHEAA Grant award if they are enrolled for at least 6 credits and meet certain income restrictions determined by AES/PHEAA. Students must also meet AES/PHEAA academic progress requirements. PHEAA State Grant is a reimbursement program. Refunds are usually available in early August. Federal Pell Grant The Federal Pell Grant is an entitlement program that students may qualify for if they meet the grant’s eligibility guidelines. If a student does meet the eligibility requirements the Financial Aid Office will automatically award the student a Federal Pell Grant based on their enrolled credit hours for summer. In order for a student’s Federal Pell Grant to disburse for summer, the student must have all of his/ her financial aid requirements completed. We advise students to check their VIP to verify they do not have any outstanding requirements. The summer Federal Pell Grant will begin to credit students’ accounts July 1. Students cannot receive a Federal Pell Grant award until classes have officially begun. For this reason students may have more than one disbursement during the summer semester. If a student is eligible for a Federal Pell Grant during the summer semester, his/her award will be based on credit hours enrolled and those funds will reduce his/her grant eligibility for Spring 2014. To review the Federal Pell Grant eligibility requirements, please refer to the Financial Aid Office’s webpage, www.calu.edu/financial-aid.

Student Employment
A student seeking summer work-study employment must formally apply to the Financial Aid Office by completing the Summer 2014 Work-Study Application and complete the 2014-2015 FAFSA. In addition, students must meet all federal Title IV eligibility requirements. For detailed information regarding summer employment procedures or to download the Summer 2014 Work-Study Application, please go to the Financial Aid Office homepage at www.calu.edu/financial-aid.
Financial Aid Disbursement If you are enrolled at least half time for the first 5-week session (Summer I) or full 10-week session, your Financial Aid estimated disbursement date will be 06/13/2014. If you are enrolled at least half time for the second 5-week session (Summer II) your Financial Aid estimated disbursement date will be 7/18/2014. Please note: If you are enrolled in the first 5- or 10-week session (Summer I), but do not reach half-time status until the beginning of the second 5-week session (Summer II), your financial aid will disburse on 7/18/2014. This means
.
52 CALIFORNIA UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA
that the loan funds will not be available during Summer I for your use, and you will have to pay your bill with your own funds. Students enrolled in any of the “special sessions”, e.g., oneweek, Saturdays, weekends, etc., will be eligible to receive Stafford Loan and/or PLUS Loan proceeds once the student is enrolled at least half-time (undergraduate 6 credits – graduate 5 credits). Please Note: Students attending at least half-time during the May Special Session will not receive their Stafford and/or PLUS Loan proceeds until the June disbursement. Therefore, students attending this session must be prepared to cover all non-University charges without the assistance of financial aid funds. You can contact the Financial Aid Office at 724-938-4415 if you have any questions concerning your financial aid. Summer Financial Aid information and forms can be found at www.calu.edu/financial-aid. *Master Promissory Notes, Entrance Counseling, and any other requirements (i.e. verification) must be completed before loans are disbursed.
Satisfactory Academic Progress Federal regulations require California University of Pennsylvania to establish Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) standards for students applying for and receiving financial aid assistance. SAP policies review a student’s academic performance in terms of quantitative and qualitative measures to ensure the student is making progress towards the completion of the academic program. SAP policies apply to all Title IV financial assistance programs including Federal Work-Study, SEOG, Federal Perkins Loans, Federal Stafford Loans, and Federal Direct PLUS loans and Pell grants. Students at California University of Pennsylvania must meet all of the requirements stated in the Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy regardless of whether or not they previously received financial aid. Cal U is responsible for ensuring that all students who receive Title IV assistance are meeting these standards. Policies The SAP policy for Cal U for Title IV students is the same as or stricter than the university’s standards for students enrolled in the same educational program who are not receiving Title IV aid. Satisfactory Academic Progress standards include: 1. Qualitative (GPA) 2. Quantitative (credit hours earned) 3. Maximum Time Frame For all degree-seeking students, SAP will be calculated at the end of each semester of enrollment, typically in January, June and August. Qualitative Undergraduate students must maintain at least a 2.00 cumulative grade-point average to remain in good academic standing. Graduate students must maintain at least a 3.0 cumulative grade-point average to remain in good academic standing. Quantitative Students must earn 67% of credits attempted to maintain good standing and be considered making Satisfactory Academic Progress.
The completed percentage is determined by dividing credits earned by the number of credits attempted. • Withdrawals, incompletes, and failures are considered attempted but not earned. • Repeated courses are included in the calculation of both attempted and earned units. • Audited courses are not considered units attempted or earned. Maximum Time Frame Maximum Time Frame is defined as the required length of time it will take a student to complete his/her degree. A student will remain eligible for federal aid for up to 150% of total attempted credits. For example, if you are pursuing a degree which requires 120 semester hours, you may not receive financial aid after you have attempted 180 hours. This includes transfer credits. Most majors require 120 credits for graduation. Some exceptions: B.S. in Education (certificate in Biology) requires 124 credits (193 credits max). A dual major in education is 144 credits (216 credits max). A B.S. Computer Engineering Technology, a B.S. in Electrical Engineering Technology and a B.S. in Computer Science require 124 credits (186 credits max). Most graduate degrees require 45 credits (68 credits max). Please contact your academic adviser to see how many credits are required to complete your degree. Then you will be able to determine your Maximum Time Frame.
