Vermont Incentive Grant

Eligibility
Vermont residents are eligible to apply for the Vermont Incentive grant if they are:

• Accepted or enrolled in an undergraduate degree or certificate program, and do not already have a bachelor’s degree;
• Enrolled in at least 12 credits per term

Vermont Incentive grants are available for Vermont residents enrolled full time at any postsecondary institution that participates in the Federal Pell Grant program, including out-of-state institutions.

Amount
The grant award is based on financial need and the cost of attendance of the student's school. The minimum and maximum award amounts are determined annually based on funding availability.

How to Apply
To apply, complete a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and a Vermont grant application. You can complete both the FAFSA and the Vermont grant application online at www.vsac.org. Vermont grant applications are considered on a first-come, first-served basis as long as funding is available.
