Pell Grants
What is the Pell Grant Program?
The Pell Grant Program is funded by the Federal government. It is the largest federal grant program that provides money to help undergraduates pay for college education. Unlike loans, grants are gift aid and do not have to be repaid.

Who is eligible for a Pell Grant?
You may be eligible for a Pell Grant if you meet all of the following conditions:
  1. You are enrolled in a regular degree program as a degree-seeking student at CCC.
  2. You are a U.S. citizen or an eligible noncitizen.
  3. You are making satisfactory academic progress as defined by the financial aid policy.
  4. You are not in default on a Perkins Loans, Subsidized or Unsubsidized Stafford Loans, Parent Loan (PLUS) or Supplemental Loan to Students (SLS).
  5. You do not owe a repayment on a previous Pell Grant or other grants.
  6. You can show financial eligibility as determined by your Student Aid Report (SAR).
  7. You have not previously earned a baccalaureate degree.
How do I apply for a Pell Grant?
Complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) at www.fafsa.ed.gov. There is no charge to file the FAFSA application. A new application must be filed every academic school year. Four to six weeks after you submit your application, the processor will send you a Student Aid Report (SAR). The SAR includes an Estimated Family Contribution (EFC) or number that indicates your tentative eligibility resulting from the Department of Education standard evaluation.

What do I do with the SAR?
After you check your SAR for accuracy, contact the Financial Aid Office. Don't wait!

What do I do once I am awarded my grant?
Your Pell Grant will be applied directly to your student account each term. Any funds remaining after paying your tuition and fees will be released to you. If your grant does not cover the cost of your tuition/fees, you must pay the additional charges.

What if I drop classes after receiving my Pell grant?
If you drop credit hours at any time after receiving your check, you may be required to repay a portion or all of the funds you received. You will be notified by the Financial Aid Office after the add/drop period is over.
