  • FAFSA Financial Aid Difficulties
    Experiencing Technical Difficulties
    Bakersfield College has been experiencing technical difficulties that resulted in inaccurate student account financial balances. In many cases, student accounts erroneously reflected no BOG waiver and higher cost out of pocket expense to students. We have identified the issue and are working diligently to resolve the problem. NOTE: No students will be dropped during our corrective process. Please check your InsideBC message boards for any updates and we apologize for the inconvenience.
