杏吧直播间 for a TEACH Grant
TEACH Grant program
The TEACH Grant is a federal program that encourages highly qualified teachers to work in low-income schools and high-need subject areas. The grant provides financial assistance to graduate students pursuing a career in teaching. The grant offers up to $4,000 per year to eligible students who commit to teaching in high-need fields for at least four years within eight years of completing their program. Most of our schools in the regions are located in high-need areas and are eligible for TEACH grants. You can get a Master's in Reading and Writing through the TEACH grant.
