Federal Perkins Grant

The Federal Perkins Grant is a type of financial aid designed to help students with significant financial need pay for college. It provides funds that do not need to be repaid, making it a valuable resource for those pursuing higher education. The program is administered by colleges and universities, which receive a set amount of money from the federal government to distribute to eligible students. The grant is intended for low-income undergraduates and some graduate students, supporting their educational goals and reducing the financial burden of tuition and related expenses.
