<p>Pell Grants are not scholarships. They are grants directly from the feds. If you qualify, you get the money.</p>

<p>Scottaa, I think slacker101 is referring to the GMSP Scholarship. I think qualifying for the Pell Grant just means you’re eligible for the scholarship in terms of financial need. The rest depends on your essays (8 of them!), recommendations, etc. Good luck!</p>

<p>thanks for the response. I know that a lot of ppl apply for the schollie but dont qualify for Pell. So i was hoping that since i qualified my chances would increase significantly. However, i dont really know if this is the case.</p>
