The following Financial Aid resources will be available for Summer 2025:

If you received the Pell grant during the 2024-2025 academic year and meet one of the following conditions, you may be eligible to receive the Pell grant for the Summer 2025 semester.

  • You are a Pell eligible student who has unused Pell grant (unused Pell is the result of less than full-time enrollment during the Fall 2024 and/or Spring 2025). Pell will be awarded automatically after summer registration is confirmed.
  • You are enrolled for at least 6 credits as a half time student and have remaining lifetime eligibility (Pell will be prorated based on your eligibility and enrollment).

*Please Note:

    • Pell eligibility, including the value of a student's Pell Grant is determined based on the information reported on the FAFSA; therefore, Pell amounts will vary for each student.
    • Students are required to maintain Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) in order to receive federal, state and institutional aid, including in the summer terms. Learn more about SAP.
    • Utilizing summer Pell will affect a students' lifetime Pell eligibility limit. Students can receive up to 12 Pell payments in their lifetime. A semester equals one payment, so each time a student utilizes summer Pell, they will utilize one of their 12 lifetime payments.

If you received the New Jersey State Tuition Aid Grant (TAG) at 老司机福利社 during the 2024-2025 academic year, you may be eligible to receive TAG for the Summer 2025 semester. You may be eligible for a summer TAG payment if you meet all of the following criteria:

  • You are enrolled in six or more credit hours (half-time) in the summer term (TAG will be prorated based on your enrollment)
  • You are matriculated (degree-seeking) at 老司机福利社 for the summer term and are enrolled in courses that will lead to your graduation or academic requirements

*Please Note:

    • TAG eligibility, including the value of a student's TAG is determined based on the information reported on the FAFSA and reported to the Higher Education Student Assistance Authority (HESAA); therefore, TAG amounts will vary for each student.
    • Summer TAG values are considered separate from the regular academic year TAG program, so summer TAG payments will not count against a student's lifetime maximum number of regular TAG payments.
    • TAG cannot be applied to your account to cover fees; therefore, TAG cannot exceed the cost of your tuition charges.
    • Students are required to maintain Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) in order to receive federal, state and institutional aid, including in the summer terms. Learn more about SAP.
