TEACH Grant

  Alert!

Beginning May 1, 2024, the U.S. Department of Education (ED) will transition the TEACH Grant Program from MOHELA to ED via StudentAid.gov. To allow for the transition of the TEACH Grant program to StudentAid.gov, the processing of all TEACH Grant forms will be temporarily paused beginning May 1, 2024, and is expected to last into fall 2024. For more information, please visit StudentAid.gov/streamlining.

The Teacher Education Assistance for College and Higher Education (TEACH) Grant Program provides grants of up to $4,000 a year to students who are completing or plan to complete course work needed to begin a career in teaching.

A TEACH Grant is different from other federal student grants because it requires grant recipients to agree to complete a teaching service obligation as a condition for receiving the grant. If the service obligation is not completed, the TEACH Grant will be converted to a Direct Unsubsidized loan that must be repaid, with interest.
