Fafsa Pell Grant - Giantzebra - 11-08-2020

If I was awarded 750 dollars in pell grants, but over three semesters - 250 each semester - can I put all those into one semester? Does it make a difference if I am in my last semester?

Pell grants are spread out over an academic school year. You cannot receive the full award for one semester.

Okay. 
So even if it is my last semester, I just forfeit the rest of the award.

Yes, you will lose the remainder of the award.
