Fed Financial

College Student Financial Aid Question /Grant Status /Money?

I'am a college student and have received x amount of dollars as a federal grant.Apparently,any money that I do not spend (money that is left over) goes back into the system and does not carry over towards my next semester.My question is:Am I permitted to spend that extra money on other books - that I may be interested in - that are not a part of my required reading?

  1. Typically, money can be used for tuition, req'd text books, fees, and supplies. Supplies can include from paper to calculators to photocopy charges. Also, you should have the entire year to use the money, not just the one semester. So if you are going to school over the summer, when grant money is hard to come by, you can apply the excess from Fall and Spring terms.
