Federal Pell Grant
The Federal Pell Grant is an entitlement program designed to help undergraduate matriculated students meet the cost of education. Eligibility and award amounts are based on financial need. Awards range from $313 to $2887.50 per semester, depending on cost of attendance and full- or part-time enrollment status. Students must apply each year and continue to make satisfactory academic progress in a degree program. Students must not owe repayment on any federal grants or be in default of a student loan. A student may receive up to the equivalent of six semesters of Pell.
