Very important information regarding grant aid (Pell, FSEOG, and State Need Grant):
Most grant aid can only be awarded a maximum of 3 quarters in an academic year (Summer-Spring). This means students who begin school in Summer quarter and attend Fall and Winter quarter will not receive grant aid in Spring quarter. If you rely on aid from Pell, FSEOG, or the State Need Grant and plan to attend a fourth quarter in an academic year, you will need to plan ahead and figure out other forms of aid, like student loans or scholarships. Or, you will need to save money on your own from your grants each quarter to put towards the fourth quarter.
Special thanks to Katie V. of AmeriCorps for providing the information for this post.
