                                           How Financial Aid is Paid

 

You receive one Pell Grant in an award year but distributed half at a time each semester.  How much you receive will depend not only on your EFC, but also, on your cost of attendance, whether you are a full-time or part-time student, and whether you attend college for a full academic year or less.  Pell eligible students are eligible for two (2) fulltime enrollment semesters. Students who were not enrolled for fulltime both Fall and Spring semesters are eligible for the balance of the aid for the Summer.  In addition to filing the FAFSA, institutional forms must be completed for the Summer term.  These forms are available at your Student Aid Office.  You may not receive Pell Grant funds from more than one college at a time even if you are enrolled at more than one college at a time.   You must contact your college to request your college's written procedures on how Financial Aid funds are disbursed.
