Federal Teacher Education
Assistance for College and Higher Education (TEACH)
Grant
Students who intend to teach in a public or private elementary
or secondary school that serves students from low-income families
may be eligible for this grant. In exchange for receiving a TEACH
Grant, students must agree to serve as a full-time teacher in a
high-need field in a school that serves low-income families.
Students must teach for at least four academic years within eight
calendar years of completing the program of study for which they
received a TEACH Grant. Failure to complete this service obligation
will result in the grant being converted to a Federal Direct
Unsubsidized Stafford Loan.
