The Pell Grants and Stafford loans do have set limits however. If I remember correctly an undergrad student Pell cannot exceed $5000 per school year and Stafford cannot exceed $4000. This is Calendar year so if you are going Spring, Summer, Fall it will be spread out over those three semesters. These amounts will also have tuition and fees taken out of them so figure approx $1500 per semester for full time. In the end you will still be paying for the majority of your training, but going this route will offset the costs a bit. |
The Stafford unsubsidized and subsidized loan amounts rise according to year in school. As a freshman both combined is $6000 while as a junior and senior you could get both to total $10,500. I think sophomores are eligible for a toal of $7500. The Pell's I have no idea since I can't get 'em
