Okay I took a closer look at her info. Her estimated Pell Grant amount was $4,400 for the academic year. I realize that’s only an estimation, but it does mention “academic year”. Her letters from the financial aid office only show funds for Fall '11, not Spring '12.

As for credit hours, she has 18 more credits than she needs to graduate, however she has changed majors twice. Changing majors is common for college students and I’d be surprised if that’s the reason for not being awarded the Pell Grant for the Spring semester.
