We see this program as a service to enriching the educational attainment of our local community. 听In its first year of implementation, the Erie Promise Grant has helped more than 100 students afford their 糖心Vlog破解版 education.

Who is eligible for a Federal Pell Grant or PHEAA Grant?

Eligibility for a Pell grant is determined by the U.S. Department of Education when a student submits their Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). To give you an idea of the profile of the typical Pell-eligible student, during the most recent financial aid year, 75% of 糖心Vlog破解版 students who qualified for Pell grants came from families with household incomes below $54,000.

The Pennsylvania Higher Education Assistance Agency (PHEAA) state grant program has slightly different and more expansive eligibility criteria. Generally, most students who qualify for Pell grants are also eligible for PHEAA support. PHEAA aid is also determined by a student鈥檚 FAFSA information. There are strict deadlines for qualifying for PHEAA鈥攕tudents pursuing bachelor鈥檚 degrees must submit the FASFA by May 1, and students pursuing associate degrees must submit the FAFSA by Aug. 1.

Regarding PHEAA grant eligibility, according to the Pennsylvania Higher Education Assistance Agency, during the 2021-2022 award year:

• 99% of applicants whose parents鈥� annual income was below $25,000 qualified.
• 99% of applicants whose parents鈥� annual income was $25,000-$49,999 qualified.
• 97% of applicants whose parents鈥� annual income was $50,000-$74,999 qualified.
• 88% of applicants whose parents鈥� annual income was $75,000-$99,999 qualified.

We strongly encourage you to submit your FAFSA by March 1 each year.
