Federal Teach Grants

Piedmont College participates in the Federal TEACH Grant Program for undergraduate and graduate students. Interested students are encouraged to research the program and submit an application to the Piedmont College Financial Aid Office. The Federal TEACH Program is available to first baccalaureate and first post-baccalaureate degree students only. At Piedmont College, students enrolled in the Education Specialist or Doctoral Program are ineligible for this program.

• The TEACH Grant Program was created by Congress in the College Cost Reduction and Access Act. For more information call the Federal Information Student Center: 1-800-4-FEDAID or view the website https://studentaid.gov/understand-aid/types/grants/teach
