TEACH Grant

The Teacher Education Assistance for College and Higher Education (TEACH) Grant is available to graduate and undergraduate students who intend to pursue a career in teaching. Eligible students will have completed the FAFSA, though this is not a need-based grant. Students who receive funding through the TEACH Grant program agree to teach in a high-need field at a school serving students from low-income families for four years within eight years of graduating or ceasing enrollment. The maximum TEACH Grant amount in 2016-17 is $3,728 and is pro-rated based upon the students level of enrollment (full time, 3/4 time, half time, less than half time).
