3185 Financial Aid
The Governing Board of Hartnell College recognizes that the purpose
of financial aid is to provide equal opportunity and access to post-secondary
education for all persons regardless of ability to pay. Consequently,
although the primary responsibility for meeting college costs is considered
to rest with the student and his or her family, Hartnell College supports
a Financial Aid Office to provide assistance to students with documented
financial need.Hartnell College shall award financial aid in compliance with the Hartnell College Policy statement of Equal Education Opportunity as available in the Office of Human Resources and Staff Diversity and in compliance with federal, state, and local guidelines. Hartnell College is committed to ensuring, within applicable guidelines for financial assistance and application procedures, that no student shall be denied the opportunity to pursue his or her educational objectives solely due to the student's or parent's inability to pay.
