Federal Pelt GrantA Federal Pell Grant. unlike a loan, does not have to be repaid. Pell Grants are awarded usually only to undergraduatestudents who have not earned a bachelor's or a professional degree. (In some cases. however, a student enrolled in apost-baccalaureate teacher certification program might receive a Pell Grant.) Pell Grants are considered a foundation offederal financial aid, to which aid from other federal and nonfederal sources might be added.

How much can I get?The maximum Pell Grant award for the 2009-10 award year (July 1,2009 to June 30, 2010) Is $5,350. The maximumamount can change each award year and depends on program funding. The amount you get, though, will depend notonly on your financial need, but also on your costs to attend school, your status as a full-tlme or part-time student, andyour plans to attend school for a full academic year or less.

!' I am eligible, how willi get the Pen Grant money?Your school can apply Pell Grant funds to your school costs, pay you directly (usually by check), or combine thesemethods. The school must tell you in writing how much your award will be and how and when you'll be paid. Schoolsmust disburse funds at least once per term (semester, trimester, or quarter). Schools that do not use semesters,trimesters, or quarters must disburse funds at least twlce per academic year.

The National Science & Mathematics Access to Retain Talent Grant(National SMART Grant)The National Science and Mathematics Access to Retain Talent Grant, also known as the National Smart Grant Isavailable during the third and fourth years of undergraduate study (or fifth year of a five-year program) to at least half.time students who are eligible for the Federal Pell Grant and who are majoring in physical, life, or computer sclences,mathematics, technology, engineering or a critical foreign language; or non-major single liberal arts programs. Thestudent must also be enrollad In the courses necessary to complete the degree program and to fulfill the requirements ofthe intendad eligible major In addition to maintaining a cumulative grade point average (GPA) of at least 3.0 In coursework reqUired for the major. The NatIonal SMART Grant award Is in addillon to the student's Pelf Grant award.

How Much Can A Student Receive?A National SMART Grant win provide up to $4,000 for each of the third and fourth years of undergraduate study. Theamount of the SMART Grant, when combined with a Pelf Grant, may not exceed the student's cost of attendance. Inaddition, If the number of eligible students is large enough that payment of the full grant amounts would exceed theprogram approprlallon in any fiscal year, then the amount of the grant to each eligible student may be ratably reduced.

Eligible Students

• be a U.S. citizen or eligible non-cltlzen;• be Pell Grant-eligible during the same award year;• be enrolled at least half-lime:• be in the third or fourth year of an undergraduate degree program (or fifth year of a five-year program);• be pursuing a major In physical, life, or computer sciences, mathematics, technology, engineering or a critical foreign

language; or non-major single liberal arts programs, and• have at least a 3.0 GPA on a 4.0 scale as of the end of the second award year and continue to maintain a 3.0 GPA

that must be checked prior to the beginning of each payment period (e.g.. semester).

Note - A student Is eligible to receive a National SMART Grant if the student enrolls In the courses necessary to completethe degree program and to fulflH the requirements of the Intended eligible major.

That Is, an otherwiae ellglble student can receive a National SMART Grant for a payment perIod only If the student Isenrolled In at least one course that meets the specifIC requirements of the student's National SMART Grant-ellglble majorand It Is not necessary that the course be offered by the academic department that confers the degree In the eligiblemajor. For example, a student malorlng In biology Is eligible to receive a National SMART Grant during a semester Inwhich he or she Is enrolled In a physics course if the physics course Is required for the major even if the student Is notenrolled in any biology courses.

A student who Is taking general education courses or electives that satisfy general degree requiraments for the student'sNational SMART Grant-eligible program. but who Is not taking at least one course specific to and required for theNational SMART Grant-ellglble major, is not eligible for a National SMART Grant payment for that payment period.

However, to beeligible for a National SMART Grant the student must also be enrolled In at least one course required for the student'sNational SMART Grant major. If the student were enrolled only In courses that satisfy the general educationreqUirements of the NalionaJ SMART Grant·ellgible program, but nolln any courses that are specific to the major, he orshe would not be eligible for a Nat/anal SMART Grant payment for the semester.
