Grants Available to IUPUI Students
Federal Pell
The Federal Pell Grant is awarded based on receipt of the FAFSA and determination the student’s Expected Family Contribution (EFC) and enrollment level meets the award eligibility criteria. Federal Pell Grant is the basic foundation for awarding other types of student financial aid. Awards range from $609 to $5,350 for the 2009/10 academic year.
To be eligible, the student must:
- Submit the FAFSA and meet federal student aid programs requirements (e.g. U.S. Citizen or eligible noncitizen)
- Have an EFC between 0 and 4617 for the 2009/10 aid year
- Be an undergraduate enrolled in a degree-seeking program
- Meets Satisfactory Academic Progress standards
A Student with a baccalaureate or first professional degree is not eligible for a Federal Pell Grant. Additionally, students incarcerated in a federal or state penal institution are not eligible for a Federal Pell Grant.
Enrollment levels (full-time, three-quarters-time, half-time, and less than half time) are determined based on projected or actual enrollment with subsequent adjustment based on actual enrollment each semester. Final Federal Pell eligibility is determined and awards are finalized each semester on the Pell Census date that corresponds to the end of the 100% refund period.
