Pell Grant and 4 disbursements vs 3?

[cookderosa]

That kind of what i expected. We will see what they answer. However, I was reading that how the money is paid out is up to each school (e.g. it isn't a federal mandate to split it into 4 pieces). We'll see ...

I ended up using all 4 sessions for classes, it worked out fine, but you'd have to calculate if it's more expensive to do so. I remember (it's been several years ago) that I was right on the line for breaking even. Meaning what it cost to attend and what they were giving me were just about even.
