<p>Hi</p>

<p>I am Legal resident in California , I am almost going to finish distance learning degree from an overseas university </p>

<p>But I seek to get a US degree so i thought to transfer them to an online college in Kensas</p>

<p>It is expected to transfer between 60-90 credits </p>

<p>Is such case eligible for pell grant ?</p>

<p>Thanks </p>

No. See [6</a> Ways to Get Funding to Study Overseas, and One Way Not To - College Cash 101 (usnews.com)](<a href=“http://www.usnews.com/education/blogs/college-cash-101/2008/10/17/6-ways-to-get-funding-to-study-overseas-and-one-way-not-to]6”>http://www.usnews.com/education/blogs/college-cash-101/2008/10/17/6-ways-to-get-funding-to-study-overseas-and-one-way-not-to)

<p>If you do not complete a full undergraduate degree at the foreign university so that you can be considered to still be pursuing your first undergraduate degree after you transfer, then you may be eligible for Pell.</p>

<p>However, it may make more sense for you to complete that degree at your current university, and attend grad school here. Think about that too.</p>
