Grants

Grants are a form of Gift Aid and do not have to be repaid. 两性色午夜 University participates in the programs listed below:


Federal Pell Grant

Amount

2024-2025 max amount for full-time: $7,395

Who is Eligible

U.S. Citizens or permanent residents demonstrating financial need; undergraduates.

How to Apply

Submit FAFSA in early October each and every year.

How Award Is Determined

Your eligibility for the Federal Pell Grant is determined by the FAFSA and the federal formula to calculate your Student Aid Index (SAI) number. The amount that you are awarded is based on your SAI number as well as your enrollment intensity per semester. Only undergraduate students are eligible for the Federal Pell Grant. Eligible students are limited to a maximum lifetime limit to receive the Pell grant which is equivalent to 12 full-time semesters.

Enrollment Intensity

Your enrollment, or number of credits you are taking, is considered when determining the amount of your Pell Grant. Prior to the 2024-2025 aid year Pell was determined using your enrollment status (full-time, three-quarter time, half time, less than half time). Starting with the 2024-2025 aid year, the Pell Grant is based on Enrollment Intensity. Enrollment Intensity is a more accurate way to prorate your Pell Grant based on the actual number of credits you are enrolled in rather than 4 broad categories. See the chart below. Please remember that some other types of aid (including TEACH Grant, state, or institutional aid) may still use enrollment status.

The Iraq and Afghanistan Service Grant and Children of Fallen Heroes Grant

On the 2024-2025 FAFSA there is a question regarding any parent who may have lost their life either while on duty in the military after September 11, 2001, or while performing duties as a public safety officer. If checked yes, you will be asked for documentation to confirm that you are eligible for consideration of this award.

Starting with the 2024-25 award year schools will no longer be awarding Iraq and Afghanistan Service Grants (IASG), or special grants for Children of Fallen Heroes. Rather than receiving one of these awards, the student will receive a maximum Pell Grant award. The federal government has established a lifetime limit of no more than 12 semesters (or its equivalent) for eligible students. 

Eligibility:

  • The child of a parent or guardian who died in the line of duty while (a) serving on active duty as a member of the Armed Forces on or after September 11, 2001; or (b) actively serving as and performing the duties of a public safety officer; and
  • Less than 33 years old as of the January 1 prior to the award year for which the applicant is applying (e.g., for the 2024-25 award year, a student must be less than 33 years old as of January 1, 2024, to be eligible).
