Many programs offer graduate assistantships each year for students based on academic quality and experience in research.  Graduate assistantships are available each year in many of the departments and schools where advanced degrees are offered.  These graduate assistantships may be in the form of scholarship, tuition waiver, cash stipends for services performed, or a combination of those, depending upon each student’s program and department recommendations. Please contact your program director(s) for details on graduate assistantships or other forms of financial aid.

Research awards are available for departmental or contract research in some fields. From time to time, fellowships are offered in certain federally-supported programs in which University of the Pacific participates.

Graduate students who are U.S. citizens or eligible non-citizens may apply for federal student loans. For information, visit www.pacific.edu/financialaid or contact the:

Financial Aid on this page is for the following professional programs on the San Francisco campus.

Professional

Arthur A. Dugoni School of Dentistry

All information applies to the DDS, IDS and Dental Graduate Programs. For additional information, contact your program.

It is important to know that all applicants are considered for admission regardless of their financial circumstances. Financial aid is awarded on the basis of financial need as long as the student is a U.S. citizen, permanent resident or eligible non-citizen. The financial aid office emails application materials beginning in January to those who are accepted for admission. An applicant must be approved for admission before financial aid can be awarded.

Loans and scholarship funds are available from private, state, and federal sources. The financial aid office assists students in managing their financial resources and their indebtedness in school and after graduation. Staff members conduct a needs analysis and provide comprehensive financial guidance for every student applying for financial aid. Complete information about the types of financial aid available and the application process can be obtained from our website at www.dental.pacific.edu or from the financial aid staff in the Office of Student Services.

Course Loads

Course load refers to the number of units a student takes during a quarter term.  While course-load requirements are program-specific (i.e., programs determine the minimum or maximum number of units students are required to take in a term), course load influences financial aid. 

The following course load categories correspond to financial aid categories for the DDS and IDS programs.

Full Time: 16 or more units per quarter
Half Time: 8 to 15.999 units per quarter
Less than Half Time: .001 to 7.999 units per quarter

The following course load categories correspond to financial aid categories for the Endodontics and Orthodontics programs.

            Full Time: 20 or more units per quarter
            Half Time: 10 to 19.999 units per quarter
            Less than Half Time: .001 to 9.999 units per quarter

While the above Course Load categories are applicable to domestic students receiving financial aid, international students studying on an F-1 visa must meet registration requirements for a “Full Course of Study,” as defined by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, in accordance with the U.S. Department of Education.  A “Full Course of Study” is defined on a quarter basis, and students on F-1 visas must meet the established criteria to obtain/maintain their visa:

•            a minimum of 16 units per quarter for students in the DDS and IDS programs

•            a minimum of 20 units per quarter for students in the Endodontics and Orthodontics programs

Financial Aid on this page is for the following undergradaute program on the San Francisco campus.

Arthur A. Dugoni School of Denistry

Dental Hygiene

The University maintains a substantial student financial assistance program that includes scholarships, grants, loans and job opportunities. Detailed financial aid information and application instructions are available at www.pacific.edu/About-Pacific/AdministrationOffices/Office-of-Financial-Aid.html.

Students who wish to be considered for academic merit-based scholarships are advised to complete the admission application process by the appropriate deadline or priority date. Students who seek other University scholarships, grants, work-study, or loans or whose parents wish to apply for a Federal Direct PLUS Loan must also file a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and complete other application procedures as instructed by the Financial Aid Office. In addition, financial aid applicants who are legal residents of California and do not already have a bachelor’s degree are expected to apply for a Cal Grant. High schools and colleges have information about the Cal Grant programs and application procedures.

Students are advised to file the FAFSA electronically at the Federal Student Aid Web site. A worksheet and instructions may be downloaded from the Web site, or may be secured at a high school or college or from the University. The priority FAFSA filing date for entering Pacific students is January 15. Pacific awards financial aid to students who apply after the admission and financial aid priority dates; however, late awards may be less favorable.

A student must be approved for admission as a regular student to an eligible degree or certificate program before financial aid can be awarded. Students must enroll on at least a half-time basis to qualify for most financial aid and some awards require full-time enrollment. Aid is usually awarded for the entire school year, with the full-year amount divided equally among the semesters or trimesters of enrollment. Please note that financial aid eligibility is re-evaluated when a student completes pre-professional work and enters a professional program.

Financial aid at the University is available only to U.S. citizens, permanent residents and other eligible non-citizens.

When a financial aid recipient withdraws during a semester, the student’s financial aid is adjusted according to federal and state regulations and University policy. Details are available on the Financial Aid website under Student Consumer Information.

Academic Requirements

Federal regulations require the Financial Aid Office to ensure that financial aid recipients maintain acceptable academic standing and make satisfactory progress in their programs of study.

Students placed on academic probation may receive financial aid, but students who are academically disqualified are placed on financial aid disqualification. Financial aid recipients are also expected to complete satisfactorily at least 67% of all units attempted and to obtain their degrees within a specified maximum period of full-time study. Access to financial aid to pay for repeated courses is limited by federal regulations.

For further information, please refer to the Academic Probation and Disqualification Policy Statement in this catalog and the Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy Statement available from the Financial Aid Office.

Yellow Ribbon Program FAQ

What is the Yellow Ribbon Program?

The Yellow Ribbon GI Education Enhancement Program (Yellow Ribbon Program) is a provision of the Post-9/11 GI Bill®. This program allows institutions of higher learning (degree granting institutions) in the United States to voluntarily enter into an agreement with VA to fund tuition expenses that exceed the highest public in-state undergraduate tuition rate. The institution can contribute up to 50% of those expenses and VA will match the same amount at the institution.

Who is Eligible for the Yellow Ribbon Program?

Only Veterans entitled to the maximum benefit rate of 100 percent, as determined by the service requirements, or their designated transferees may receive Yellow Ribbon benefits from Pacific and the VA.

As of August 01, 2022, active-duty military personnel, and their spouses who are using the transferred entitlement may participate in the Yellow Ribbon Program.

The general eligibility requirements for the Yellow Ribbon Program include:

  • You served an aggregate period of 36 months in active duty after Sept. 10, 2001.
  • You were honorably discharged from active duty for a service-connected disability, and you served 30 continuous days after Sept. 10, 2001.
  • You are a dependent eligible for Transfer of Entitlement under the Post-9/11 GI Bill® based on the service eligibility criteria listed above.

We encourage all Veterans to review the eligibility criteria directly from the VA’s website at https://www.va.gov/education/about-gi-bill-benefits/post-9-11/yellow-ribbon-program/

GI Bill® recipients at 100% entitlement are eligible to participate in the Yellow Ribbon Program for the Stockton Campus.

How are Yellow Ribbon Program recipients selected?

Students are selected based on a first come first serve basis, determined by the date and time of the application received by a VA Certifying official or the Registrar’s Office.

 The availability of Yellow Ribbon awarded varies by campus according to their Yellow Ribbon’s agreement.

How Do I Apply for Yellow Ribbon Benefits under Post-9/11 GI Bill®?

The Department of Veterans Affairs is now processing applications for the Post-9/11 GI Bill®. Interested students should complete and submit the application form online at https://www.va.gov/education/how-to-apply/

To complete an application online, you will need the VA code numbers for the University of the Pacific:
Stockton Campus VA Code number: 3-1-8911-05
Sacramento Campus VA Code number: 3-1-9812-05
San Francisco Campus VA Code number: 3-1-9813-05

You will receive written notification explaining the VA's decision regarding your eligibility for the Post-9/11 GI Bill® and the Yellow Ribbon program. If you are eligible, you will receive a Certificate of Eligibility (COE) that specifies you are "potentially eligible for the Yellow Ribbon Program." The final funding decision, however, will be made by Pacific.

For questions regarding COE, please contact the VA Education Call Center at 1-888-442-4551 or submit an inquiry by going to ask.va.gov.

Once you receive your COE and are deemed potentially eligible for the Yellow Ribbon Program, complete Pacific's Yellow Ribbon Application (pdf) and submit your COE along with your application to Office of the Registrar or the VA Certifying Official. Upon receipt of your COE, the VA Certifying Official will verify your eligibility to participate in the Yellow Ribbon Program.
