Abstract

Grants and scholarships are money awarded to help pay for your education. You do not have to repay them. Eligibility for need-based aid is determined by your family’s ability to pay for college, according to the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Income is just one factor. Others include the number of people in your family and the number of family members in college. Some financial aid programs recognize particular talents or achievements. You might earn a scholarship for academics, sports, arts, or leadership, for instance. Others are based on your field of study or planned career.
