TEACH Grants

Overview

The Teacher Education Assistance for College and Higher Education (TEACH) Grant provides up to $4,000 a year to students who commit to teach full time in a high-need field at a low income school.

  • Teaching in a high-need field; and
  • Completing the required four years of teaching within eight years after you graduate from or stop attending ±«Óătv.
