To start using an approved Pell Grant you first need to fill an application. You don't need to pay for it, there is a website where you can do it for free:

(FAFSA = Free Application for Federal Student Aid)

A Pell Grant is money given out by the federal government to people who want to start studying or taking college-level or grad school courses, but have difficulty paying for it. It's not like a loan, but more like a grant - you don't need to repay it. However, not everyone is eligible for Pell Grant, it depends on your income level.
Here's a website with more information about how to get on with the process:
