The Bay Area Teachers Center
recognizes that making the decision to pursue a Single Subject
Credential is an important commitment of time, energy, and finances.
The Bay Area Teachers Center does not offer financial assistance
to credential candidates. Outlined below are the most common
Financial Assistance Resources available. The credential candidate
is responsible for securing financial aid as necessary. Financial
aid recipients must pay tuition in full to the BATC. Candidates
receive financial aid funds from the lending institution once
enrollment is confirmed
San Francisco State University Financial Aid Office
The Financial Aid Office at San Francisco State University offers a variety of grants, scholarships, and educational loans to eligible candidates. In order to determine eligibility for Financial Aid, a FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) must be
completed and filed with the federal processor for FAFSA. You can file a FAFSA over the internet at www.fafsa.ed.gov instead of using the paper form.
After the Financial Aid Office at SFSU has received and reviewed your eligibility data from your FAFSA, a Financial Aid Offer Letter will be mailed to you detailing the types and amounts of Financial Aid dollars available to you. If you decide to accept any Financial Aid offered by SFSU, remember to make a copy of the Financial Aid Offer Letter for the Bay Area Teachers Center and your files.
Americorps Educational Grant
If you have already earned an AmeriCorps Educational Grant ($4,725),
you may use your AmeriCorps Educational Grant to pay for your
tuition for the BATC/SFSU Single Subject Credential Program.
You will need to establish a file with the Financial Aid Office
at SFSU, so that your AmeriCorps Voucher can be properly processed.
If you have any questions about processing your AmeriCorps Voucher,
please contact Sandy Ng, Financial Aid Counselor at SFSU at
(415) 338-3286.
Professional Development Funds from your school
Some schools may allocate a portion of their budget for Professional Development for teachers. The amount of Professional Development money available to teachers will vary
from school to school. Please contact the appropriate person at your school to determine if you are eligible for any Professional Development funds.
These are just a few of the common Financial Assistance Resources available to you as you pursue a Single Subject Credential with the Bay Area Teachers Center and San Francisco
State University. Please check for other sources of Financial Assistance for which you may qualify.
