Kentucky CAP Grant

The Kentucky CAP Grant is gift assistance which generally does not have to be repaid.

You must:

  • Complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and list Eastern Kentucky University on the application as a school choice (001963).
  • Demonstrate need as determined by the FAFSA.
  • Be a Kentucky resident.
  • Be enrolled for at least 6 hours.

You cannot be enrolled in a program which leads to a degree in theology, divinity or religious education. CAP grants will not pay for correspondence classes.

For a regular fall/spring term, CAP Grant amounts will be adjusted based on enrollment level until the end of the drop/add period for each term.

KHEAA will notify you of your eligibility for a CAP grant.
