Q: What key financial aid considerations should be on a student's checklist when taking summer term courses through Acadeum?

A: Make sure students are using Federal Pell Grant eligibility and that they're scooping up anything that might be a part of 150% Pell. If they have unused loan eligibility, you can also use that during the summer term.
