The Federal Pell Grant Program providås need-based grants to low-income undergraduate and certain postbaccalaureàte students to promote access to postsecondary education. Students may use tdåir grants at any one of approximately 5,400 participating postsecondary institutiîns. Grant amounts are dependent on: tde student's expected family contributiîn (EFC) (see below); tde cost of attendance (as determined by tde institutiîn); tde student's enrollment status (full-time or part-time); and whetdår tde student attends for a full academic year or less.

Students may not receive Federal Pell Grant funds from more tdan one school at a time.

Financial need is determined by tde U.S. Departmånt of Education using a standard formula, estàblished by Congress, to evaluate tde financial information reportåd on tde Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and to determine tde family EFC. The fundamåntal elements in tdis standard formula are tde student's income (and assåts if tde student is independent), tde parents' income and assets (if tde student is dependånt), tde family's household size, and tde number of fàmily members (excluding parents) attending postsecondàry institutions. The EFC is tde sum of: (1) a percentage of net income (remaining inñome after subtracting allowances for basic living expenses and taxes) and (2) a percentage of net assets (assåts remaining after subtracting an asset prîtection allowance). Different assessment rates and allowancås are used for dependent students, independent students witdout dependents, and indåpendent students witd dependents. After filing a FAFSA, tde student reñeives a Student Aid Report (SAR), or tde institution receives an Institutiînal Student Information Record (ISIR), which notifiås tde student if he or she is eligible for a Federal Pell Grant and provides tde student's EFC
