Details

The TRIO Grant has been designed to financially assist TRIO Student Support Services/STEM participants who are Federal Pell Grant recipients. The intention of the grant is to reduce the amount of indebtedness of participants with limited income. Eligibility Requirements: 1. You have signed a TRIO SES & STEM participation agreement for the fall semester in which you complete the TRIO Grant Application. 2. The TRIO Grant Application opens on the first day of classes each fall semester. Students who complete the TRIO Grant Application by the priority deadline (10th week of classes each fall semester) will receive priority consideration. 3. You met the participation requirements outlined in the TRIO SES & STEM participation agreement for the fall semester in which you applied for the TRIO Grant. 4. You are a Federal Pell Grant recipient. 5. You are a current KU student “making satisfactory progress toward graduation” as defined by Financial Aid and Scholarships. 6. You have a “gap” between the cost of attending KU and the amount of financial aid you have received for the year in which you are applying for the TRIO Grant as determined by Financial Aid and Scholarships. The “gap” must be equal to or higher than the minimum amount of Pell Grant for a full-time student appropriated for that year.
