Summer cost of attendance is based on the program the student will be participating in. Summer Sea Training I, Summer Sea Training II, Summer Sea Training III, International Experience or Co-Op.
Direct expenses (actual cost paid to Cal Maritime) are determined by Financial Services for the following items:
- Sea Term Cost
- Tuition & Fees
- Lab fees

Indirect costs (estimated cost not paid to Cal Maritime) such as books, personal expenses, and transportation are prorated and calculated by determining the number of weeks in fall and spring semesters and multiplying by the number of weeks in the summer program the students is enrolled in.
Summer Aid
Summer Sea Term is considered the last term of the academic year for financial aid purposes. Aid eligibility will be based off the 2024-2025 FAFSA or CADAA application. The aid options will typically consist of any aid that was not exhausted during the academic year. Summer aid will automatically be determined once students enroll for summer term, a separate application is not required.
To be considered for financial aid during the summer, students must meet basic eligibility requirements. However, other factors such as FAFSA data and availability of funds will contribute to a student's eligibility and amount awarded.
- Have a 2024-2025 FAFSA or CADAA on file with Cal Maritime (school code 001134)
- Enroll in at least 6 undergraduate units
- Meet Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) standards
Types of aid available to qualified students include:
- Pell Grant

Eligibility for a Federal Pell Grant
If you received a Federal Pell Grant during the academic year, there are two ways you may be eligible to receive a Pell Grant during the summer:
- If you did not enroll full-time in the fall and spring semesters, you may have some remaining Pell Grant eligibility for the summer semester
- If you received 100% of your scheduled Pell award during the fall and spring semesters, and you are enrolled in at least 6 units during the summer, you may be eligible for an additional Pell Grant payment
How Much Pell Grant Eligibility Will I Have For Summer?
Your Pell Grant eligibility is going to be based on a number of factors specific to you. These include:
- Your summer enrollment
- Use of Pell Grant during the academic year
- Your lifetime use of Pell Grant
If you are eligible to receive Pell Grant during the 2024-2025 year but were not enrolled full-time during the fall or spring terms, you may be eligible for the remainder of your eligibility during the summer as long as you are enrolled in at least 1 unit.
If you were enrolled full-time during both the fall and spring terms and received your full Pell Grant during those terms, you can still use part of your overall Pell Grant eligibility for summer if you enroll in at least 6 units. You might be limited by your overall Pell Lifetime Eligibility, as students may not receive more than six years of full-time Pell Grant eligibility (600%). Confirm your lifetime usage at the Federal Student Aid site.

Cost of Attendance Overview
The Cost of Attendance (COA) is what we estimate it will cost to attend Cal Maritime for the academic year. The COA includes tuition and fees, food and housing, books and supplies, transportation, personal and miscellaneous expenses. The only "direct billed" costs (items that the campus will charge you for directly) are tuition and fees, food and housing (if living on campus), and the Opt-In Corps of Cadets uniform (if applicable). Other expenses, such as books and supplies, travel and miscellaneous expenses, and off-campus food and housing are an estimate and your actual costs may be higher or lower than what we estimate.
A full, detailed and current Fee Schedule to all campus charges can be found here.
Fees Subject to Change
The California State University (CSU) makes every effort to keep student costs to a minimum. Fees listed in published schedules or student accounts may need to be increased when public funding is inadequate. Therefore, CSU must reserve the right, even after fees are initially charged or initial fee payments are made, to increase or modify any listed fees. All listed fees, other than mandatory systemwide fees, are subject to change without notice, until the date when instruction for a particular semester or quarter has begun. All CSU listed fees should be regarded as estimates that are subject to change upon approval by the Board of Trustees, the Chancellor, or the Presidents, as appropriate. Changes in mandatory systemwide fees will be made in accordance with the requirements of the Working Families Student Fee Transparency and Accountability Act (Sections 66028 - 66028.6 of the Education Code).
