I applied for my 2007-2008 Pell Grant and recieved my fall grant what can I do to get my summer school grant?

From my understanding, I believe summer school is not covered. My cousin had a full financial aid all throughout college, but Summer School was up to him. Because it's optional.

You can only get Pell for the summer if you did not receive all of your scheduled Pell award in the fall & spring. You mentioned that you got your 07/08 Fall Pell (which I assume was given to you some time between August and December of 2007); you don't mention getting an 07/08 Spring Pell (which I would suspect would have been given to you some time between January and June 2008). If you didn't recieve an 07/08 Spring Pell disbursement, you may still have some eligibility left over, and could get it for Summer. Talk to someone in your financial aid office. They are the only people who can tell you for certain about receiving Pell for the Summer. Have you applied for 08/09 aid yet? If not, do it NOW! Maybe your school considers summmer to be a "header" and you have to apply for the next amount. Again, talk to someone in the financial aid office asap for a definite answer.
