How would I know if I am low-income or not?
Low-income is defined as having an adjusted gross income (AGI) that is lower than 150% of the poverty levels set by the U.S. Census Bureau. This number changes with the number of members in your family and updates every January: https://www2.ed.gov/about/o...
Many low-income students will have a Pell grant in their financial aid package although this is not a direct indicator. Reach out to your TRIO department if you have any specific questions about your income eligibility http://www.uma.edu/trio
