All Pell Grant / Cal Grants awards are based on the Federal Pell Grant and the State Cal Grant full-time payment schedule. Adjustments will be made during the semester based on your actual enrollment status prior to disbursement. Subsequent adds in 6-week or 9-week classes will not increase your Pell or Cal Grant payments to higher amounts.
