<p>That is a good question and you should really speak directly with the financial aid office, but, from the Financial Aid Handbook for 2008 (due to updated), </p>
<p>“How many years can I receive financial aid?
Since the 35 credits for a Dartmouth degree can be completed in 12 terms or fewer, Dartmouth scholarship assistance is normally limited to 12 terms. Thirteenth terms must be financed with family resources, loan assistance, and “portable” outside scholarships such as Federal Pell Grants, state grants, and merit scholarships. Requests for an exception to this policy must be submitted to the Financial Aid Committee. Those entering with advanced class standing or as transfer students are eligible for fewer terms of grant eligibility since they are closer to graduation upon matriculation.”</p>
