FEDERAL PELL GRANT
What’s a Grant?
A grant is a form of financial aid that doesn’t have to be repaid (unless, for example, you withdraw from school and owe a refund).
The Federal Pell Grant program provides need-based grants to low-income undergraduate and certain post-baccalaureate students to promote access to postsecondary education.
A FAFSA or Federal Application for Federal Student aid must be completed at www.studentaid.gov to apply for all federal aid.
FEDERAL SUBSIDIZED LOANS
Federal Subsidized Loans are available to undergraduate students with financial need. Your school determines the amount you can borrow, and the amount may not exceed your financial need.
FEDERAL UNSUBSIDIZED LOAN
Federal Direct Unsubsidized Loans are available to undergraduate and graduate students; there is no requirement to demonstrate financial need. Your school determines the amount you can borrow based on your cost of attendance and other financial aid you receive. You are responsible for paying the interest on aDirect Unsubsidized Loan during all periods.
