Gallaudet Grant-in-Aid

Grant-in-Aid Awards (Gallaudet/Gally Aid)

Gallaudet University offers a limited number of grant-in-aid awards, also known as Gallaudet or Gally Aid, to degree-seeking undergraduate students who are U.S. citizens or permanent residents. These grants are intended to assist with tuition, mandatory fees, and campus-based living expenses (room and board).

Supplemental Nature: Grant-in-aid awards are supplemental to the student’s personal funds, parental support, and other financial aid from federal or state programs, including Federal Pell Grants, Federal Work-Study, and Federal Direct Loans.
Eligibility:
- Must be degree-seeking and in good academic standing
- Must demonstrate financial need
Award Amount and Proration:
- Awards are prorated based on the number of credit hours in which the student is enrolled
- Any portion of the grant that cannot be applied to charges will be canceled; grant-in-aid funds are not refundable to the student
Coordination with Other Funds:
- Grant-in-aid may be replaced or swapped with need-based endowed or donor scholarships to maximize the use of available funds
- Remaining funds from the academic year may be used to provide summer session grants for students who were enrolled during either the Fall or Spring semester of the preceding academic year.
Disbursement: Grant-in-aid funds are applied directly to eligible tuition, fees, and campus-based living charges and follow the University’s standard financial aid disbursement schedule.
