Question

i applied for a pell grant and it was awarded (for fall of 08 and spring of 09) .... i now want to attend a different school then origionally put on my pell app. is this allowed ?

Answer 1

Yes, you can do this; however, you will need to send in a corrected/updated application to the office that is awarding your pell grant and let them know what school you are attending.  This may or may not effect the amount you awarded, but they will need to know what school to pay that amount to.

Answer 2

Yes.  Go to the http://fafsa.ed.gov website and add your new school code to your SAR.  It's under STEP 3. Then call your new school and ask if they have any paperwork besides the fafsa you need to do for them.
