Topic: TEACH Grant Fundamentals and Responding to the NPRM
Date Recorded: April 7, 2008

The TEACH Grant Webinar Series is co-sponsored with the American Association of Colleges for Teacher Education.

The new TEACH Grant program provides up to $4,000 per year in grant aid for undergraduate, post-baccalaureate, and graduate study to prepare or help prepare highly qualified teachers in high-need fields. A total of $16,000 is available for undergraduate or post-baccalaureate study and a total of $8000 is available for pursuit of a Master’s degree. Students incur a service obligation in exchange for the grant: four years of full-time teaching in low-income schools within 8 years after completing the course of study. Students who do not fulfill the teaching obligation must repay the grant funds as unsubsidized Direct Loans.

In this Webinar, NASFAA staff examines the TEACH Grant Program and discusses responding to the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) published on March 21. Dr. Jane West will speak from the teacher education point of view. Gail McLarnon and Kay Gilcher, federal negotiators for the TEACH Grant Program, will also join us to help answer your questions.
