The TEACH award offer originates from an estimated federal grant funding amount. Therefore, it is important that applicants are aware that “[t]he US Department of Education is providing ongoing guidance to assist us in identifying eligible students.  HOWEVER, FINAL REGULATIONS HAVE NOT YET BEEN RELEASED.  AWARDS MAY CHANGE AND RESULT IN FUTURE ADJUSTMENTS TO YOUR AID PACKAGE.  The Financial Aid Office will re-evaluate your award status as new guidance and final regulations are released, and will notify you if your eligibility changes.”
