Federal Pell grant
The Federal Pell Grant program provides financial assistance to students with high financial need. The amount of the award is based on a student's FAFSA results and enrollment status. Pell grants provide a foundation of financial aid to which other aid may be added.

Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG)
The FSEOG program may provide additional assistance to Federal Pell Grant recipients with exceptional financial need. FSEOG funds are limited at each school and there is no guarantee that every eligible student will be able to receive them.
