student grants

School money awards

Student grants are financial awards given to students to help pay for education, typically based on financial need, academic merit, or specific criteria like field of study or background.

Unlike loans, grants don't require repayment: She received a student grant that covered her tuition.

Governments, universities, and private organizations all offer student grants.
