Pell Grant

Federal Pell Grant 

Pell Grants are awarded to undergraduate students who have not earned a bachelor's or professional degree and who are not enrolled in graduate-level classes. Eligibility is determined by the Department of Education using a standard formula established by Congress and is based on the information you provide on the FAFSA. The formula produces an Expected Family Contribution (EFC). The amount you receive depends on your EFC, the institution's cost of attendance and the number of credit hours for which you are enrolled, and whether you attend school for the full academic year. You may not receive Pell Grant funds from more than one school at a time.
