Who knows about the SMART grant?

Question

I just changed my major to biology, this fall will begin my 4th year of college. in the spring, I'm enrolling in an allied health program for medical technology, which is a bachelor of science degree.

my gpa is 3.44. I have already been awarded a pell grant for the 08 09 school year for $2800 dollars (about)

I guess what i'm asking is, should I be eligible for the smart grant even though I *just* changed my major? It was psychology before.

Also, should I talk to my financial aid officer at school and tell them that i changed majors and am now eligible? or should they figure it out on their own?

Answer 1

Well, if you aren't sure if you qualify or not you should definitely check with your financial aid officer. They are the masters of the subject after all.
