联邦佩尔助学金

The 联邦佩尔助学金 is awarded to students with financial need who are pursuing their first Bachelor’s Degree。 Amounts are based on the SAI from FAFSA (Guide to Aid Offers: “Important Terms”), and your enrollment level。 All award amounts are based on projected full‐time (12+ credit hours) enrollment, and awards are adjusted for a student’s actual enrollment during Enrollment Census。 The Federal government limits a student’s eligibility to 600%, or 6 years of enrollment。 For additional information, please visit https://studentaid。gov/。

注意: Upon completion of declared major curriculum requirements for a first bachelor’s degree, a student is no longer eligible to receive a Pell Grant。 Example: A student working on a double major has completed all requirements for the first bachelor’s degree, but does not apply for graduation until he or she has completed the requirements for both majors, is no longer eligible for a Pell Grant。

什么是暑期助学金?
我们的财政援助年度从秋季学期开始,到夏季学期结束。 Since the summer is at the end of our aid year, summer financial aid eligibility is limited to those funds that were not used during the traditional academic year (prior fall and spring)。

我如何申请暑期助学金?
不需要额外的文书工作。 Your 2024-25 FAFSA will be used to determine eligibility for summer aid。 June 30, 2025 is the deadline to file the 2024-25 FAFSA application that applies to the summer term。 You will be notified by 电子邮件 in early to mid-May regarding summer financial aid awards。

暑期助学金是如何确定的?每个学生都有财政援助的年度贷款限额。 Summer aid is determined by subtracting the amount you borrowed during the traditional academic year from your annual limit。

To qualify for 额外的夏天 Pell Grant funds, you must:

  • 在24-25学年有资格获得佩尔助学金。
  • 保持令人满意的学业进步(SAP)
  • 有终身佩尔助学金资格。

If you are enrolled less than half time (6 credit hours) for the summer terms, you may still qualify for Pell Grant funds, but you will not be eligible for a Direct Loan。
