Of course they do...

10 seconds of looking at their easy to navigate website:

Excelsior College costs and financing - excelsior.edu

Financial aid for online students - excelsior.edu

Grants - excelsior.edu

COSC is less difficult about it, and will allow you to get your hours pretty much anywhere so your not tied to COSC.

Umm Pell grants are Federal Financial Aid... what does that have to do with accepting credits from other schools?

I'm pretty sure they mean using the $ to pay for classes from more than 1 college. You might want to consider decaf.

It's important to understand that each school has its own guidelines on how they distribute federal aid money. I only posted because the decision on where to matriculate finally come down to aid package for me and EC had much more stringent requirements and would have actually cost me more to attend. COSC is quite willing to act as a clearing house for aid dollars and your money can go farther....

With that said, I really didn't answere the question...EC absolutely does accept Federal money including PELL grants. you could perhaps also stretch your aid at EC be joining POAG...but then you didn't ask about that either.

Good luck !!!

Valsacar...I'm terrible sorry to have thrown in my earlier useless post!
