Types of Federal Student Aid:

 

Types of Grants:

There are several types of grants offered through Federal Student Aid (FSA).  Angeles Institute participates in the PELL and Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (SEOG) programs.  Each type of grant has different terms and conditions, so it is important to understand the differences between them before applying.  Your Angeles Institute Financial Aid Advisor will help you with this process.

Here's a brief explanation of the federal student grant programs Angeles Institute participates in:

  • Grant 1: Pell Grant
  • Grant 2: Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG)
Rectangle 76-1

Federal Pell Grants usually are awarded only to undergraduate students who display exceptional financial need and have not earned a bachelor's, graduate, or professional degree.

 

For more information on the Pell Grant look here:  https://studentaid.gov/understand-aid/types/grants/pell

Rectangle 76-1

You can receive between $100 and $4,000 a year, depending on your financial need, when you apply, the amount of other aid you get, and the availability of funds at your school.

Each participating school receives a certain amount of FSEOG funds each year from the U.S. Department of Education’s office of Federal Student Aid. Once the full amount of the school’s FSEOG funds has been awarded to students, no more FSEOG awards can be made for that year. This system works differently from the Federal Pell Grant Program, which provides funds to every eligible student.

So, make sure you apply for federal student aid as early as you can. Each school sets its own deadlines for campus-based funds. You can find a school’s deadline on its website or by asking someone in its financial aid office.
