Emory College Grant

Emory College Grant is granted on the basis of demonstrated financial need using the information from the Profile and FAFSA. Awards are made to full-time students only, with the exception of final semester seniors who are allowed to underload. In this case, the Emory College Grant will be divided. Because award funds are limited, make sure you meet the deadlines.

Eligibility Criteria/ Scholarship Guidelines

To receive aid from federal student aid programs, you must meet certain educational and legal criteria:

A student must be enrolled or accepted for enrollment as a regular student working toward a degree in an eligible program.

A student must meet satisfactory academic progress standards set by the post-secondary school you are or will be attending.

A student must be a U.S. citizen or eligible non-citizen.

A student must have a valid Social Security number (unless you're from the Republic of the Marshall Islands, the Federated States of Micronesia, or the Republic of Palau).

You must certify that you will use federal student aid only for educational purposes. You must also certify that you are not in default on a federal student loan and do not owe money on a federal student grant.

You must comply with Selective Service registration if required. At the same time, you complete your Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), give the Selective Service permission to register you.

You might not be able to receive federal student aid if you've been convicted under federal or state law of selling or possessing illegal drugs. You must complete Question 23 of the FAFSA; if you leave it blank, you'll automatically become ineligible for federal student aid.

Value
Aid from federal programs is granted based on a student's financial need. To indicate your federal financial need, Emory will subtract from your cost of attendance (COA), the Expected Family Contribution (EFC) and other financial aid you'll receive. If anything is left over, you're considered to have a financial need for additional federal student aid.
