Opportunities from College of the Marshall Islands Financial Aid Office

The College of the Marshall Islands participates in the U.S. Federal Pell Grant program. Pell Grants normally do not need to be repaid and may be used for educational costs including tuition, books, living expenses and child care. CMI states a maximum Pell Grant of US$7,395, with the actual award determined by federal eligibility rules and enrollment. Applicants submit the FAFSA each year and list CMI school code 030224. CMI's current financial-aid process lists Spring priority deadlines of October 31 for continuing/returning students and November 30 for new, readmitted and transfer students; because the applicable deadline depends on applicant status, this record does not invent one universal deadline.

CMI lists U.S., Republic of the Marshall Islands, Federated States of Micronesia and Republic of Palau citizens among eligible Title IV/Pell applicants. Pell is generally for undergraduate students who have not earned a bachelor's degree or higher and is based on financial need, eligible enrollment and other federal requirements. Applicants must be admitted to CMI and meet the College's financial-aid requirements, including satisfactory academic progress where applicable.
