IRAQ AND AFGHANISTAN SERVICE GRANT

This is a Grant and does not have to be repaid. If you are not eligible for a Pell Grant but your parent or guardian was a member of the U.S. armed forces and died as a result of military service performed in Iraq or Afghanistan after September 11, 2001, you may be eligible for this grant.

To receive the grant, you must have been under 24 years old or enrolled in college or career school, at least part-time, at the time of your parent's or guardian's death. The amount of the grant will be equal to the maximum Pell Grant for the award year, although the amount will not exceed your cost of attendance for that award year.
