If I were to attend a university and apy for Financial Aid, how much do they usually give? How is it distributed? Does it last all 4 years?

You have to apply for financial aid every year. I had an EFC of 0 which stands for estimated family contribution and I got a federal pell grant of 5350 which is for the entire year. I go to community college and it is barley enough to cover both of my semesters with books. I’m pretty sure if your looking to go to a university you might want to look into Scholarships and you can also get low intrest loans that you pay off AFTER you graduate. Good luck with furthering you education…
