Types of Financial Aid

The following types of financial aid are available at Green Country Technology Center:

• Federal Pell Grant
  The Federal Pell Grant is a federally funded grant program which provides funds for educational expenses to adult students who attend post-secondary education. If the student withdraws from school, the grant payments will terminate. The family financial situation determines whether a student may receive a grant and the amount of the grant. Grant amounts are determined yearly based on federal funding of the Pell Grant program. All students who are eligible and make application will receive a Federal Pell Grant. 
  
• Oklahoma G.I. Bill
  Benefits under this bill allow tuition-free training to Oklahoma veterans who meet the criteria.
  
• Veteran's Benefit
  Students may apply for Chapters 30,31,32,34 or 106 benefits, if they meet eligibility requirements.
