What is the difference between Grants and Scholarships?

 

Grants and scholarships are both both "Gift Aid", meaning money that does not have to be repaid. Grants are usually primarily based on financial need, while scholarships are usually based, or based somewhat upon merit.  Scholarships may require the student to meet certain requirements, both before and after, the scholarship is obtained. Most scholarships require the student to maintain a minimum GPA, and the student usually has to maintain a certain number of credit hours.
