Understanding the Types of Financial Aid

Financial Aid is available in the form of federal, state, and institutional grants, scholarships and loans. Click each section below to explore detailed information about each type of aid programs available for students and families at Morehouse College.

Grants

Grants are funds that do not require repayment.
A grant is a monetary gift for people pursuing higher education. It is often based on financial need and does not need to be repaid (unless, for example, you withdraw from school and owe a refund). Federal and State Grant aid is determined by the completion of the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).

Examples of these programs consist of: Pell Grant, Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (SEOG), Georgia Tuition Equalization Grant (GTEG) and Georgia College Completion Grant (GCCG).
