I received a Pell Grant for the fall and/or spring semester, and I plan to attend summer semester. How do I find out if I am eligible for Pell Grant for the summer semester?
If you were a full-time student and received Pell Grant for both the fall and spring semesters, you will not be eligible to receive Pell Grant money for the summer semester. However, if you were enrolled less than full-time for fall and/or spring semester, you may be eligible for some Pell Grant money for the summer semester. To determine your eligibility for summer, you will need to bring a copy of your summer schedule to the Financial Aid Office. If you are eligible for Pell Grant money, a revised Award Notification will be mailed to you indicating the amount of Pell Grant money available for you to use on Financial Aid Day for the summer semester.
If you were a full-time student and received Pell Grant for both the fall and spring semesters, you would need to register for at least 6 credit hours or 12-16 contact hours that are in your program to be eligible to receive Pell Grant money for the summer semester. However, if you were enrolled less than full-time for fall and/or spring semester, you may be eligible for some Pell Grant money for the summer semester. If you are eligible for Pell Grant money, a revised Award Notification will be posted to the student’s account in Web Advisor. State grants are not available for the summer semester.
