Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG)

Like the Federal Pell Grant, a SEOG does not have to be repaid. Unlike the Federal Pell grant, it is not received directly from the government. The federal government authorizes MSU a limited amount of money for the purpose of awarding supplemental grants to its students. Once distributed, there are no additional funds for that year. This type of award is called a campus-based program since it is administered by MSU.

FSEOGs are awarded to undergraduate students who demonstrate financial need and meet the federal eligibility requirements. Preference is given to Federal Pell Grant recipients and students with the highest demonstrated need.

Awards range from $200 to $800 per year depending upon need and availability of supplemental grant funds at MSU.
