Types of Aid

Grants

Grants are need-based allotments of money from the federal government that do not have to be repaid. You’ll automatically receive all your grants by completing the FAFSA.

These are the grants most often awarded to NWC students:

• Federal Pell Grant
• Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG)

Grants are awarded on a first-come, first-served basis, so complete your FAFSA early. You’ll be notified of any grants you receive in your award letter.
