Don’t use any of those! Go to http://www.fafsa.ed.gov/ to fill out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid application. You can do it all online and save your work to come back later to finish it.

E-mail me if you need any more help with financial aid. My e-mail is superduckub@yahoo.com

Pell Grants are awarded by the US Department of Education and paid through your school’s financial aid office. You apply for them online using the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) at the link below. You can pick up paper copies of this application for free at the financial aid office of the college or university you are intending to attend.

When you fill out the FAFSA, you can enter up to six school codes and all of them will get the information from the Department of Education. This can save you a up to three weeks of delay if you later decide to change schools.

state grants are another option, but they vary by state.

It is true it is based on your state because some states offer grants and others don’t and have their own stipulations. Grants are similar to scholarships in that they are free financial aid that you are not required to repay. But that’s where the similarities end. Federal and state governments commonly fund student grants, which are typically based on a variety of metrics, including economic need, ability to pay, student status and academic requirements. Grants are often not exclusively based on your family’s income.

Merit-based grants provide free college funds to students based on academic performance and, sometimes in combination with financial need. The most common types of merit-based grants are state-based grants, which award students with certain GPAs and income levels money for their college education. State grants usually require a separate application form, but may also require you have completed and filed the FAFSA. Most state-based grants may be found directly on your home state’s government or higher education website.

Most types of grant programs also require you to file a FAFSA, so make this the first application you fill out. By filing the FAFSA you already are considered for any federal grants. Remember to submit by the federal and state FAFSA deadlines.

Applications for state grants are different from and in addition to the FAFSA. Your state government provides applications for specific grants. Also be aware that some programs will also require extra forms of documentation, such as academic transcripts, in order to qualify.
Make sure you are considered for grant money: complete the FAFSA as well as explore your options for state-based aid. Also, check with your college or university for any grant programs they may offer.

The ACG grant is something you receive on top of pell grant.

The government gives you additional monies if you took a rigorous course of study in high school.

So, if you EFC is low enough you will most likely receive pell grant and the ACG grant.

Nope. Nothing to do with the other.

You’ll get a Pell Grant if your Expected Family Contribution index is less than 4041. If you get the ACG Grant, that would be on top of the Pell Grant.

Hope that helps!
