The Student
Support Services (SSS) Grant is designated for students
participating in the SSS program. This grant is designed
to assist with educational expenses such as tuition, fees,
books, and supplies when all other sources of financial aid
have been exhausted. Like the Federal
Pell Grant, the SSS Grant
does NOT have to be paid back.
Be eligible for a Pell Grant by filing the
Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) each year.
Maintain
a minimum Mott Community College GPA of 2.5, and abide by

basis according to the following: Fall award is determined
June - November. Winter award is determined November - March.
Spring award is determined April - May. Summer award is determined
May - June.
Carry a minimum of twelve* credits per Fall/Winter semester (Six* credits for Spring/Summer semester) * Exceptions may apply.
Demonstrate a commitment to transfer by enrolling in courses that are required or recommended for my program. I understand this is determined by a counselor/advisor and the award may not be granted for credits in excess of those necessary to complete my program and transfer.
Keep my Support Services Coordinator informed of my progress, via telephone, email, or personal contact, at least once per semester to ensure eligibility for future awards.
Explore options before withdrawing from a course as recommended by my Support Services Coordinator such as tutoring, workshops, meeting with my instructor, etc.
The Director of the Learning Center will thoroughly review all documentation submitted prior to making a final determination on your award request. We reserve the right to cancel disbursement of an award if requirements are not met.
Your actual award amount will be determined in consultation with Financial Aid Department staff.
