The federal Pell Grant Program provides need-based grants to low-income undergraduate students. Grant amounts are dependent
on the student's expected family contribution (EFC), the cost of attendance and the student's enrollment status (full time
or part time). Students may not receive federal Pell Grant funds from more than one school at a time. Financial need is
determined by the Department of Education using a standard formula, established by Congress, to evaluate the financial
information reported on Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The current maximum Pell Grant is $4310 for two full time
terms of enrollment.
All potentially eligible students are considered automatically by the financial aid office based on the results of the FAFSA.
