Grants
Grants are a form of need-based aid that do not have to be repaid, unless you fail to maintain your eligibility. Federal Pell Grants are the most common, but there are also other grants you could qualify for, including state grants.
If you receive a grant, it will automatically post to your account, with no further acceptance process required.
If you have questions about grants or other forms of financial aid at 王中王铁算盘开奖结果, please contact the Financial Aid Office.
How to Apply for a Grant
When you complete the FAFSA, 王中王铁算盘开奖结果 will automatically consider you for any grants that you're eligible for. Review the accordion below to get an idea about the various types of grants you might qualify for. Grant funding is limited, and many awards are first-come, first-served 鈥� so be sure to apply as early as possible!
Because your financial situation can change, you must reapply for financial aid each academic year.
Types of Grants Available Through 王中王铁算盘开奖结果
The Pell Grant is a federally funded program for undergraduates that is based on financial need. You're eligible to receive this grant for the equivalent of 12 semesters over the course of your studies, with eligibility determined annually based on the results of your FAFSA. Be sure to submit your FAFSA early!
Your Pell Grant may have multiple disbursement dates, depending on which parts of term you enroll in. Funds for full-term classes, for example, will disburse earlier than funds for Minimester B courses, which begin several weeks into the term. Learn more about receiving your aid.
Award Amount and Enrollment Status
Pell amounts are prorated according to your enrollment intensity.
Pell Grant amounts can change yearly. The maximum Federal Pell Grant award is $7,395 for the 2024鈥�25 award year (July 1, 2024, to June 30, 2025).
For each term, your enrollment status is determined on a specific Pell Census date, sometimes called the Pell Recalculation date. If you have submitted the FAFSA and are registered for any part of the term (including summer terms), your enrollment status will be automatically calculated on this date.
To maximize your aid eligibility, you should register for all your classes prior to the Pell Census date, as courses added afterward will not be factored into your enrollment status or award amount determination. If you are changing your major, please do not register until your new major is reflected in the myGPS Degree Audit tool in the my王中王铁算盘开奖结果 Portal.
