Grants and Scholarships

Is there a limit to how many times you can get Pell and other student grants?

I'm asking because I was attending college 3 times, dropping out and only completing 1 semester. When I dropped out it was after the deadline. I want to finally finish.

1. I think there is. When you sign the agreement or something it tells you. ~~~~ Good luck when you continue. Hopefully your serious '-'
2. You will have to consult with the financial aid staff at your college because you may be denied and have to appeal the decision. You will need to be very specific as to why you dropped and hopefully it was for good enough reason (in their eyes) or they may make you pay back the aid you have already received. Under normal circumstances federal grants like Pell are renewable up to 6 years. 2 years for a junior or community college and 4 years for university or state college.
