Financial Aid FAQs

Can I get a Pell Grant all three semesters?


You can receive Pell Grants for up to 36 credits in an academic year, which is equivalent to receiving a full-time Pell Grant for three semesters at BYU–Idaho.

The number of credits you take each semester affects how much Pell Grant you are offered. For more information on award amounts, visit the Pell Grant page.
