Federal Pell Grant

<p>Are you suppose to get the full amount of Federal Pell Grant from your CC? I'm looking back over the last 3 years and looked that I received about nearly $5,600 for Pell Grant/year but only gotten $1,000~ per semester (Fall+Spring which only totals $2,000 per year).</p>

<p>Did my CC 'cheated me out' of my full financial package or is this normal?</p>

<p>Did you take a full load of classes? Did you spend any of it on books or supplies or fees for your CC?</p>

<p>Yeah I took the regular requirement of having 12 units and over for obtaining Federal Pell Grant and yeah I spent some on books and small fees for my CC cost (I have a BOG Wavier so paying for classes are virtually none) but rest of it I had to pay for bills, however felt like I didn’t get the ‘full amount of money I should of gotten’ (I could of asked about this but thought the CC were using the rest for covering my BOG Wavier but looking at it, the total class cost was less than I thought)</p>

<p>Well I spent most of mine on books. You can call and ask them and see what they say, although I doubt they made a mistake.</p>
