Grants are money that you don't repay, and they can come from government or private sources. SAU receives all financial aid funds directly - including loans and grants - then applies them to your account: once in the fall term and once in the spring term. Grants can be used to cover your tuition, books, and housing costs. 你必须每学年申请助学金. If you have any loan funds in excess of your costs, you may receive a refund. If you are a first-time borrower, there is a 30-day hold on your first disbursement. 对于所有这些补助金，您必须完成免费申请 免费申请联邦学生援助(FAFSA) 一有空位就去.
Iowa Tuition Grant
To be eligible for the Iowa Tuition Grant, you must be a resident of Iowa as defined by the State Board of Regents and currently enrolled or planning to enroll in an undergraduate degree program at an eligible Iowa college or university (SAU is eligible). Iowa College Aid administers need-based college financial aid for Iowans, 比如爱荷华学费补助.
Award: $7,500 maximum
Federal Pell Grant
Awarded to students of the highest need based on how much your family can contribute to your education. The U.S. 教育部设定了一个门槛. Then, when you file your 免费申请联邦学生资助 (FAFSA), it computes where you land within that threshold and determines if you qualify for the grant and for how much.
Award: $6,895 maximum
联邦补充教育机会补助金(FSEOG)
You must file a FAFSA 有资格获得佩尔助学金. 此补助金以先到者为准, first-served basis to students who have submitted all required documents for review and in time for the review to be complete. 如果你有资格获得佩尔助学金或SEOG, 这些奖项将出现在你的经济援助奖励信上.
Award: $400 maximum
Federal Work Study
必须确保校园就业.
Award: $2,560
Federal Teacher Education Assistance for College and Higher Education (TEACH) Grant
