2013-14 Board of Governor's Fee Waiver Application

It's not too late to apply to have your fees waived for the summer 2013, fall 2013, and upcoming spring 2014 terms! You may apply  online or submit a paper application. Please allow 2-3 weeks for processing.  You must be a California resident or AB540 student to qualify for a fee waiver.

Financial aid drop-in and document submission 
Students who wish to see a financial aid coordinator for general inquiries about their file or to submit documents may do so through a drop-in visit as specific information regarding a student's financial aid cannot be provided over the phone. Drop-in hours for the fall 2013 term are 9 a.m.- 3 p.m. Monday, Wednesday and Thursday and Tuesday 9 a.m. - 6 p.m.
 
Student IDs
Students visiting the Financial Aid Office are required to show picture ID when checking in at the window. Preferred form of identification is a Diablo Valley College Student ID card which can be obtained through the Associated Students Office (ASO) in the Margaret Lesher Building. Students must take a picture ID and a copy of their current class schedule to ASO to obtain a DVC Student ID card.  The Financial Aid Office will also accept state-issued identification cards, a driver's license, or a U.S. Passport as acceptable forms of identification. 

Our neighbors have reported that some students who park in the residential areas surrounding the college are not respectful of those neighborhoods. Our students have been reported emptying ashtrays and garbage from their cars onto the streets, playing loud music, and engaging in other types of disruptive behavior. We at DVC want to maintain an excellent reputation as a top notch institution of higher learning. Part of that means being a good neighbor. We understand that our students often have no other choice but to park on neighborhood streets, especially at the beginning of the semester and during heavy enrollment periods, but please show respect for our neighbors as you would your own. Help keep our neighborhoods clean, quiet and peaceful.
