The amount of money awarded to a student under the Federal Pell Grant Program depend on certain variables. These include: EFC Tuition costs Full time or Part time status Full or Part Academic year of study Important Details about Pell Grants In the 1999-2000 school year, the average Pell Grant awarded was $3,125. Those applying should understand that only one Pell will be granted per student per year and that a student can only receive a Pell Grant for one academic institution at a time. When a Pell Grant is awarded, the student will receive a notice in writing informing them about the amount of the Grant, how the Grant will be paid and when the Grant will be paid. Institutions most often credit a student's account with the Grant, pay the student directly by check or use a combination of both. Institutions are required to pay the student at least once per term or at least twice per academic year. Those students who are enrolled in an institution part time or less than part time are eligible for Pell Grants; however, the award will not be as high as for those students who attend full time.
