Federal Grants

Federal grants are funded by the federal government and are available to eligible students whose FAFSA demonstrates financial need.

Federal Pell Grant

The Federal Pell Grant is a federally funded, need-based grant awarded by the Department of Education to eligible undergraduates working on a first bachelor's degree or pursuing an initial credential. Recipients can receive up to the equivalent of 6 years of funding for full-time attendance.

Pell Grants are pro-rated when enrolled in less than 12 units as determined at the end of the add/drop deadline for each quarter.

Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant

The Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG) is a federally funded, need-based grant given directly to Universities to award to eligible high-need undergraduate students who are completing their first bachelor’s degree. This is a limited fund, and the amount of the award varies.

Teacher Education Assistance for College and Higher Education Grant Program (TEACH)

The TEACH Grant Program provides grants to students who are completing required course work to become a teacher and agree to teach for four years in a high-need field at a school that meets certain requirements.
