Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant

The FSEOG is a need-based federal grant awarded to undergraduates seeking a first undergraduate degree in an eligible program who have exceptional financial need and enroll in at least six credit hours. Priority is given to students with an Expected Family Contribution of “0” who apply for financial aid by the priority deadline date of May 15 each year.

Limited funding is available in this program, and funding is awarded on a first-come, first-served basis.

Initial awards are estimated based on the results of the FAFSA. Estimates may change if any criteria used to determine your eligibility, such as program of study or area of interest, degree status, satisfactory academic progress, income or family contribution changes. Actual payment will not be determined until after the drop only/refund deadline listed in the college calendar.

The amount actually paid to you from the FSEOG will be prorated if you enroll for three-quarter time or half time in a given semester. You must also be attending all of your classes. If your attendance is not verified prior to the actual payment of FSEOG funds, payment for the noncertified classes may not be made.
