Year Round Pell Grants
The Federal Pell Grant Program that allows an eligible student to receive up to 150 percent of the student’s Federal Pell Grant Scheduled Award for an award year.
Eligibility Requirements for Year-Round Pell
To be eligible for a summer Pell Grant, you must:
- Have completed a FAFSA.
- Be Pell Grant eligible.
- Enroll in summer classes.
- Enroll at least 6 credit hours.
- Be meeting Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP).
- Have lifetime Pell Grant eligibility remaining.
How much money can I get?
The amount you get, though, will depend on:
- your Expected Family Contribution,
- the cost of attendance (determined by your school for your specific program),
- your status as a full-time or part-time student, and
- your plans to attend school for a full academic year or less.
Pell Grant Scheduled Award is the amount that a full-time student would receive under the Pell Grant Payment Schedule, for a full academic year based on the student’s EFC and COA.
The additional Pell Grant award cannot exceed 50% of a student’s Pell Grant Scheduled Award.
Please note that you can receive the Federal Pell Grant for no more than 12 terms or the equivalent (roughly six years). You’ll receive a notice if you’re getting close to your limit. If you have any questions, contact your financial aid office.
