This award is renewable for up to three years, covering eight academic semesters in total.

All information on this page is in effect for students entering Asbury University in the 2023-24 academic year.

Award Parameters:

The Asbury Kentucky Pell Promise Tuition Guarantee is awarded after all available federal grants, Kentucky state grants, and tuition-based institutional scholarships have been awarded, up to 100% of the cost of tuition.

• Be a permanent resident of Kentucky.

*Students must file the FAFSA each year of enrollment. If you lose Pell Grant or Kentucky state grant eligibility, which is determined by the FAFSA, your Asbury Kentucky Pell Promise Tuition Grant will not increase or decrease. The student will be responsible for the loss of Pell and Kentucky state aid. This award is for the Asbury traditional undergraduate program only. If you withdraw from the university, and/or enter part-time status, you are no longer eligible for the Asbury Kentucky Pell Promise Tuition Grant.
