Federal Aid
The details about the various federally-funded financial assistance programs available at Brenau University are given below. All federal financial assistance may be applied for by completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid. See above for details on who should apply, eligibility for federal aid, and how the application process works. Federal Pell Grant. This Pell Grant is an entitlement for eligible students who have not earned a bachelor's degree. This grant often provides a foundation of financial aid to which other aid may be added. Grant amounts range from $200 to $3,000 per academic year.
Subsidized Federal Stafford Loan. This loan program allows students to borrow educational funds directly from a bank, credit union, or other participating lender with no interest accruing as long as they are enrolled at least half-time. A freshman may borrow up to $2,625 per academic year; a sophomore, up to $3,500; a junior and above may borrow a maximum of $5,500. Repayment of principal and interest begins six months after the student graduates or is no longer at least a half-time student. The interest rate is variable and capped at 8.25%.
Unsubsidized Federal Stafford Loan. This loan is available to students who do not demonstrate need or enough need to receive a maximum Subsidized Stafford Loan. Interest will accrue during periods of enrollment. Annual loan limits are the same as for the Subsidized Stafford Loan; however, independent students may be eligible to borrow additional funds up to the following annual limits: freshmen and sophomores up to $4,000; juniors and above up to $5,000.
Federal PLUS Loan. The PLUS program is available for parents of dependent students. A parent may obtain a PLUS without demonstrating financial need and may borrow up to the entire annual cost of attendance as certified by the Financial Aid Office . The interest rate is variable and capped at 9%.
Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant. This grant is available to undergraduate students with exceptional financial need with priority given to Federal Pell Grant recipients. Grants may range from $200 to $1,500 per academic year.
Federal Perkins Loan. A student with exceptional financial need may borrow up to $3,000 per academic year through this loan program. Interest at the rate of 5% will accrue beginning nine months after graduation or after a drop to less than half-time enrollment. Repayment will also begin at that time. Loan cancellation provisions are included for certain teaching fields, nursing, and public service.
Federal Work-Study. This program provides jobs for students with financial need allowing them to earn money to help pay education expenses. Jobs are assigned by the Financial Aid Office and students are paid the current federal minimum wage.
