The Pell Grant is a federal financial aid program in the United States designed to provide need-based assistance to eligible undergraduate students pursuing post-secondary education. It is one of the largest sources of grant aid provided by the U.S. Department of Education. The Pell Grant is awarded based on a student’s financial need, as determined by the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The grant does not need to be repaid, making it a valuable resource for students seeking financial assistance to cover tuition, fees, and other education-related expenses. The amount awarded through the Pell Grant is determined by factors such as the student’s Expected Family Contribution (EFC), enrollment status, and cost of attendance.
