Vermont Pell Grants and Participating Education Institutions
The Vermont Pell Grant is available to Vermont state resident undergraduate students studying towards a baccalaureate or first professional degree. In order to qualify to receive the Pell Grant, Vermont students must prove a need for financial aid and be enrolled at an education institution that participates in the Federal Student Aid Program.
The maximum level of Pell grant award available to Vermont students for the 2011/2012 academic year is $5,710, and the minimum is $550. The level of award that Vermont students receive will depend on their enrolment status and Expected Family Contributions.
Vermont students can use the federal Pell grant at any of the participating education institutions across the United States. However, if studying out of state, they should expect to pay out-of state tuition fees. As a result, because students would be Vermont residents, their Pell grant awards and any additional federal and Vermont state funded college grants they receive will not stretch as far as they would if studying at one of Vermont’s education institutions.
