The Pell Grant is typically awarded to undergraduate students who demonstrate significant financial need and have not yet earned a bachelor's or professional degree. Eligibility is based on the Expected Family Contribution (EFC), as determined by the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The grant is particularly aimed at low-income students, including those from families with limited financial resources. Additionally, students attending eligible institutions, including colleges and universities, can qualify for this federal aid.

No. Grants do not have to be paid back as long as you meet your school's SAP (Satisfactory Academic Progress). Which just means for most schools that you pass half of your classes. Even if loans are offered from the government they still have to be paid back, but grants do NOT have to be paid back.
