Student Aid

2.2: Grants

Grants

A grant is a form of student aid that typically does not have to be repaid (unless, for example, you withdraw, fail to begin attendance, or adjust enrollment prior to the Pell Grant recalculation date). Grants are need based. Except for the Federal Pell Grant, grants are allocated to colleges in yearly, limited amounts, so a student may show eligibility, but may not receive an award if the grant funds have been exhausted.
