Accessing my Financial Aid information and Semester Account Balance

All students are able to check their Financial Aid information and Semester Account Balance in MyGOCC.

Remember: MyGOCC is accessed on the website at the top of the screen, or under “Services” on the right hand side, and selecting “MyGOCC”. You will need to log in using your Glen Oaks login information covered in the previous module.

Once you’re signed in, students can check their Financial Aid information by selecting the “Financial Aid” tile. You will be able to select the award year that you want to look at and see your financial aid. If you do not see any aid listed on your account, and you believe there should be - contact the Glen Oaks Financial Aid office for assistance.

You can view your account balance by selecting the “Student Finance” tile. Here you will find an overview of your account.

Important Remaining Eligible for Financial Aid

In order to remain eligible for Financial Aid, students are responsible for:

Maintaining a 2.0 grade point average
Complete 67% of attempted classes
Finish program requirements within 150% of credit hours for the program

I’ve been Awarded; What is Covered?

Tuition and Fees for courses in your degree program
Textbooks and course supplies

If you want to take a course that is outside of your degree requirements, federal/state financial aid will not cover the course and you will be responsible for covering the costs associated.

Attending Class

Whether your class is in-person or online, class attendance is mandatory for receiving your Financial Aid. Not attending classes could result in your Financial Aid being reduced or removed from your account. If you receive notification that you have been reported as absent in ANY class, it is extremely important that you follow the instructions in the letter that will be provided to you. Please contact the Financial Aid Office if you have any questions about the attendance process.
