Pell Grant



Hi I’ve been doing really bad in one of my classes. And I’m worried about having to pay my pell grant money back. If I get a failing grade in one class does that mean I have to pay back money?

I think i’ll get a pell grant and my enhanced life scholarship for next school year. However i was hoping that i could still get the stafford loan even though my entire tuition would be covered by my enhanced life scholarship plus the pell grant.

So, can i still get the stafford loan even though my tuition would be covered IF (notice the caps) i got the pell grant ?

Pell Grant



I was granted a Pell grant of $2365.00 for spring semester. They paid for my classes and deposited $841 into my account last week. That leaves $1,182.00 what happens to that? I did read My Disbursements letter and states if I’m going to school half time not full time that they deposit half of my grant but what happens to the other half? I’m going to go to summer college too does that cover my summer too or what happens?

How does one person get Pell grant and another doesn’t if they have the same EFC score?

My husband and I have the same EFC score and he recieved full pell grant for the 09-10 school year and i didn’t receive any funding for it. Why is that?
yeah we both got to the same school. And we are both full time and we both turned our FAFSA in at the same time. The only difference is I’ll graduate mid year (december) and he has the full year left (he’ll grad in may) Does that maybe affect it?
