Question

Can I buy a laptop with a school grant?

Answer 1

Danetteed has the best answer available.  

Financial Aid refunds are issued to you to help you pay for educational related expenses, and living expenses.  They are not considered for anything.  A laptop will certainly qualify as a qualified educational expense, although some schools will limit how many times you can purchase a computer and have your budget increased to finance it.

Answer 2

after you have paid off your school and books, you can do whatever you want with the money to help you with school.

so yes.

Answer 3

Yes, and in fact the financial aid office can increase your budget to include the cost of a computer.  You should check with them.

Answer 4

yes..
