Teach Grant

The Federal TEACH Grant is available to Linfield education and pre-education majors. The grant amount is up to $3,760* annually and is not based on financial need. Students who receive a TEACH Grant must complete a service obligation by serving as a highly-qualified teacher in a designated high-need field at a low-income school for four years within eight years of completing a TEACH Grant eligible program. Failure to complete teaching service will result in the TEACH Grant being converted to an unsubsidized Stafford loan with retroactive interest.

• Information about the TEACH Grant is available from the US Department of Education .

• Students must complete an online Agreement to Serve (ATS) with the US Department of Education each year they receive a TEACH Grant.

*Due to the Sequester passed by Congress in 2013, any TEACH Grant award where the first disbursement is made after March 1, 2013 (including both 2012-2013 and 2013-2014 awards) must be reduced by 7.1 percent from the award amount for which the student would otherwise have been eligible to receive, which was up to $4,000.
