sps:

Unfortunately, no one can answer this question for you on the basis of the information that you have provided. The details that you have mentioned would certainly suggest that this is a household with “exceptional need”, but that would be impossible to determine for sure, unless you complete the entire FAFSA application.

There are many factors that determine financial aid eligibility – if aid could be determined by income and car ownership alone, the FAFSA would be two questions long. In reality, the FAFSA is about 100 questions long, and all of that information is considered in determining an applicant’s aid eligibility.

To qualify for Pell Grant assistance, an applicant must be a US citizen, or eligible non-citizen, they must hold a high school degree, or an accepted equivalent, and they must be attending an eligible institution of higher education as a fully-accepted student, working towards a degree or certificate. An applicant is not eligible for Pell funding if they already hold a bachelor’s degree or certificate from some other educational program.

As you can see, the rules are complicated, and you and your son will have to complete the FAFSA in order to determine what forms of aid your son might be eligible to receive. When the FAFSA is submitted to the Department of Education, the Department will compute an EFC (Expected Family Contribution) index score, and that score will be sent to the financial aid office at your son’s college or university.

Once the aid office receives your son’s score, they will attempt to match him up with any aid programs that he is eligible for. They will prepare an “aid offer letter”, detailing that aid, and telling your son how he can go about accepting it.

Don’t forget – the Pell Grant maximum is $4731 for this year (it may go up $500 next year). That money is paid directly to the school, and it must be used to pay for tuition, school fees, books, and other education-related expenses.

I hope this information helped you – and I’d also like to recommend the Department of Education booklet that I’ve linked to below. This booklet explains the entire financial aid system, and will tell you all about the different types of aid, how much is available, how to apply, and who is eligible to receive it.

Good luck!
