Yes! I got part of my financial aid package!

Paying for College
1

<p>I got:</p>

<p>Pell Grant: $2,675 a year
(I should get an OOG (Ohio Opportunity Grant) of $250 a year, the state is working on that.)</p>

<p>I can take out a standardized loan with no interest for up to $4,500 a year. (I am a sophomore)</p>

<p>I am going part time (6 credit hours) basically the above covers my tuition 100% and covers my books. </p>

<p>I will look into scholarships too.</p>

<p>What is your EFC? Did you check to see what the Pell grant amount is for your EFC at 6 credits? Pell is usually awarded at the full time level, but if you only take 6 credits, it only pays half the semester amount. Make sure you check that out.</p>

<p>Yes, I talked with the financial adviser today and she showed me the computer screen. My EFC is 0 and that is the amount for the Pell Grant at 6 credit hours. If I go full time in the future then it would double to $5350 and the Ohio grant would be $500.</p>

<p>Cool. Glad it’s working out well for you! It’s nice to know you’ll have things covered financially.</p>
