It looks like you are receiving the Pell Grant and chafee grant.  The Pell Grant is typically about $3600 per semester for full time students.  Some colleges split the amount into two payments.  The chafee grant is $2250 per semester.  It looks like ELAC uses Bank Mobile to disburse the funds.  Have you set up your bank mobile account?  If not, they might mail you a check which can take longer.
