Who may
apply: U.S. citizens,
permanent residents, and eligible noncitizens who are pursuing their first
undergraduate degree. The applicant must be a legal resident of the state that
funds the program. In the case of dependent students, legal residence is the
residence of the parent. Awards are generally based on financial need, academic
standing, or a combination of both. How to
apply: Check the
appropriate boxes on the FAFSA to generate the application process. All
undergraduates with no previous bachelor’s degree who are eligible for state
funds are expected to apply. Notification:
The state
notifies you of your eligibility. However, the Financial Aid Office verifies
eligibility. If you are still eligible after verification, the grant will appear
on your financial aid award letter. If a state grant does not appear on the
award letter and you think you are eligible, contact the Financial Aid
Office. Disbursement:
The award is
divided equally between two semesters and disbursed to your tuition account upon
receipt of a complete financial aid file in the Financial Aid Office. Funds are
credited to your account once verification of final enrollment is received from
the Registrar’s Office. Enrollment verification takes place after the add/drop
period ends, approximately three weeks after the start of the
semester. Terms of
repayment: State
scholarships and grants do not have to be repaid. Award
amounts: Award
amounts vary from state to state.
