Federal and State Grants

These grants are awarded to meet financial eligibility as determined by an analysis of the information submitted on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). They do not require repayment.

Since grants are based on financial eligibility along with other factors, awards may vary from year to year depending upon the economic situation of the family.

Federal Pell Grant

Amount: Awards range from $607 and $5,550

Eligibility: The largest of the federal grant programs, this program provides grants to students meeting the eligibility criteria established by the U.S. Congress, and the Department of Education.

 

Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (SEOG)

Amount: Awards range between $200 and $800 per academic year.

Eligibility: Priority is given to students who qualify for the Federal Pell Grant, and completed their application by the April 1st priority deadline date

 

Transfer Monitoring Requirement for Federal Funds: Transfer Monitoring is the process by which schools must verify with the Department of Education, via the National Student Loans Database System (NSLDS), eligibility for federal financial aid for students who begin their study mid-year or during the summer at Yavapai College. Once transfer monitoring for a student is reported to NSLDS, Yavapai College is required to wait seven (7) days before funds can be disbursed to the student. This process must be done even if the student did not receive financial aid at any other school. There is no action required by the student during this process.
