Pell Grant Lifetime Eligibility Used

News

Federal law limits Pell Grant eligibility to a lifetime maximum of 600%, or roughly 12 semesters (six years) of full-time study, known as the Lifetime Eligibility Used (LEU). Once a student’s LEU reaches or exceeds 600%, they are no longer eligible for further Pell Grant funds, which can be monitored via the National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS).
