PELL Grant Available This Summer 2020

Student who has exhausted his/her Pell Grant award in Fall and Spring (meaning student was carrying full time credit loads in both semesters) may be eligible to receive 150% of his scheduled Pell Grant.  The student must be enrolled in a minimum of 6 credit hours to receive additional Pell Grant in Summer 2020.

Example 1: Any student who was enrolled as a three fourth time in Fall 2019 and full time in Spring 2020 still has remaining Pell Grant.  If he/she registered for 6 credit hours he can still be eligible for his remaining Pell plus some from the 50% additional Pell.  Their total Pell Grant will be approximately 112.5%.

Example 2: If a student enrolled full time in Fall 2019 and full time in Spring 2020.  The student was awarded 100% of his initial scheduled Pell Grant.  If the student register for 3 credit hours in Summer 2020 the student enrollment status is less than half time.  Therefore, he/she is not eligible for additional Pell Grant.
