A student is no longer eligible for Federal Pell Grant when they have reached a Pell LEU of

• A. 400%
• B. 700%
• C. 600%
• D. 500%

Answer: (C)

Lifetime Eligibility Used (LEU) for Federal Pell Grants shows how much of a full-year Pell Grant a student has used. It’s tracked as a percent, with a hard cap of 600%. That 600% corresponds to about 12 semesters or six years of full-time study. When you reach 600% LEU, you’re no longer eligible for Pell funds. So 600% is the tipping point. Percentages like 400% or 500% mean you still have remaining eligibility, and 700% would exceed the allowed cap.
