Additional Information:
Nursing Students
- In accordance with federal loan regulations, all loan checks for Nursing students will be disbursed when the second module begins (i.e., mid-semester).
Loan Management Sessions
- Due to the large number of El Camino College borrowers that fail to repay their student loans, a Loan Management Session is required prior to receiving the second disbursement. Please note: second disbursement checks will not be disbursed until this requirement is met.
