的 TEACH Grant program is a non-need based grant program that provides up to $4,000* per year to students who are enrolled full time. TEACH 奖助金 are available to citizens and permanent residents only. Reduced eligibility is calculated for less than full time enrollment in an eligible program (see ‘Eligibility Criteria’ below). 学生 must agree to teach in a high-need field, at low-income elementary or secondary school as a highly qualified teacher for at least four years within eight years of completing the program for which TEACH Grant was awarded. 的 student must sign a service agreement to this effect annually, and complete all required counseling prior to receiving TEACH Grant. 3.25 GPA is required each semester to establish and maintain eligibility. 学生 must be formally admitted into the college of education or have a signed degree audit certifying the courses completed will apply to a major and degree within the 教育学院. If the student subsequently fails to meet the requirements of the service agreement, TEACH Grant will be treated as a Direct Unsubsidized Loan, and the student must repay the TEACH funds, with interest accrued from the date of disbursement.
