Important Information About These Estimates

This is an estimate, not a final determination or an actual award of financial aid, and not a final net price. It is based on the cost of attendance and federal grant rules for the years shown. Cost of attendance and financial aid change from year to year.
These estimates are not binding on the Secretary of Education, the school, or the State.
You must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) at studentaid.gov to be considered for, and receive, an actual financial aid award that includes federal grant, loan, or work-study assistance. Your actual Pell Grant depends on your FAFSA results, your enrollment, and federal eligibility rules (for example, citizenship or eligible noncitizen status, a high school diploma or recognized equivalent, no prior bachelor's degree, and remaining lifetime Pell Grant eligibility).
These estimates apply to full-time, first-time certificate-seeking students only.
Grant estimate method: All grant aid at this school is the Federal Pell Grant. The estimate uses the 2026-27 Pell Grant amounts published by the U.S. Department of Education (GEN-26-01): maximum $7,395 and minimum $740 per academic year (the same amounts as 2024-25). A Student Aid Index (SAI)-based award is $7,395 minus your SAI, rounded to the nearest $5, if that is at least $740. Income-based eligibility for the maximum and minimum Pell Grant uses the 2024 HHS poverty guidelines for the 48 contiguous states, as the 2026-27 FAFSA does. The yearly award is then prorated for the hours in each program, using a 900-clock-hour, 26-week academic year. Beginning in 2026-27, a student whose SAI is $14,790 (twice the maximum Pell Grant) or higher is not eligible for a Pell Grant.
Grant aid shown is federal Pell Grant only. Loans, work-study, outside scholarships, and agency funding are not included and are not subtracted from the net price.
Students receiving grant aid: In 2023-24, 92% of full-time, first-time students received grant aid, with an average grant of $5,706, all Federal Pell Grants (source: College Navigator, U.S. Department of Education). This is the most recent published year.
