need. The amounts of new and 

continuing awards are based on a 

student’s financial need as determined

system. Each individual fellow’s need 

must be assessed and reported each

academic progress as determined by the

annually by grantee institutions to 

report on the fellows’ progress and 

levels of financial need for the next 

academic year. ED uses this data to 

calculate fellowship amounts and the 

total grant amount sent to each 

institution for each fiscal year.
