Has anyone received EFC grant for education? Please help!?

Question

My question is has anyone recieved any pell grant EFC and there score was 821 or near? How much money did you get for school? Any comments, suggestions, advice or info is welcome, and No I dont expect you here on yahoo answers to know so dont be rude!!! Maybe some of you have gotten grants or were eligible and could help me with more info. Thank you for your time and attention.

Answer 1

If all the information on your fafsa is correct and if you meet about a million other requirements, with an EFC of this amount you will likely get a Federal Pell grant in the amount of 3,881 for the year if you attend school full time.  You would get half of this in the fall and half of this in the spring.  You also are likely to get offered student loans and work study and hopefully if you did your fafsa early enough (Feb/March) you will be offered state grants as well.

Good luck.

Answer 2

It depends on the school - is it a community college? Regular college? If so, where at? For example : I am in CA and my EFC was $9,000. My grant is about $1500, and I qualify for a fee waiver and loans. Your number is much lower, so it sounds like you should  get a decent amount! Hope this helps, even though the numbers are different!
