State University Grant
State University Grant (SUG) is funded by the State
of California to assist students with educational expenses. Students must be
California residents and must demonstrate need. You must be enrolled in at least
6 units to receive a SUG payment. CSUF annual awards for full-time students:
$3,990 for undergraduates; $4,530 for teaching credential candidates and $4,770 for graduate
students. These amounts are based on the proposed fees for 2009-2010 and are
subject to change.
2009-10 Disbursement Policy:
If you are enrolled full-time (12 or more
units) you will receive 100% of your award as shown in your TITAN Online "award
summary". If you are enrolled in fewer than 12 units, the maximum SUG payment
is adjusted according to the following chart*.

* If your award amount is less than the amounts shown in the chart for your class
level and units, you will receive 100% of your award.
Special Rules for Cal Grant recipients:
If you have been awarded a Cal Grant A or B for payment of your state fees, your
SUG award is designed to cover your Cal State Fullerton fees. However, because of
special rules limiting awards for students enrolled part-time, you will not receive
a SUG payment if you are enrolled in 7 - 11 units.
What happens if you drop one or more classes after receiving a SUG payment?
If you receive a SUG payment based on the disbursement chart above and you drop one
or more courses on or before the last day to drop a class without a grade of “W”
(see academic calendar on CSU, Fullerton's website), you may be billed for any
overpaid amount. Example: If you receive a full-time undergraduate payment of
$1995 and drop to 6 units by that deadline date, you will be billed for repayment
of $729. $1995 less $1266 (partial award) = $729 to be repaid.
