Criteria for Awarding the Grant

Eligibility will be based on proximity to campus** and financial need as determined by the Estimated Family Contribution (EFC) calculated by the US Dept. of Education as a result of a student completing their Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Unless otherwise stated, students who enroll more than 30 days prior to their start date, have an EFC of 5,500 or less, and who have a proximity** to the campus of at least 50 miles will be eligible for the grant.
