Federal Pell Grant

Federal Pell Grants are awards to help undergraduates pay for their education after high school. The Federal Pell Grant Program is the largest federal student aid program. These grants provide a "foundation" of financial aid, to which aid from other federal and non-federal sources may be added. Grants do not have to be paid back. The current maximum award for full-time study is $2,470. Awards will vary. Not all students are eligible.
Required application: Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).

Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants (FSEOG)

A Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG) is an award to help pay for your education after high school. It is for undergraduates only, and it does not have to be paid back.

Student awards vary depending on your need, the availability of FSEOG funds at the school, and the amount of other aid. Please note that funds are extremely scarce.
