Financial Aid
Helping you finance your educationThese funds have been fully expended for the 2021-22 academic year. Once funds become available in July, we will update this page.
Student Emergency Assistance Grant
The Student Emergency Assistance Grant aims to make access to emergency funding as low barrier as possible and is designed to be inclusive of all students regardless of whether you meet the traditional definition of a “needy student.” The fund is only allocated for sudden, urgent, or unforeseen occurrences that require immediate attention and would impact the student’s ability to stay in College and complete their educational goal. Student emergency support funds include: housing costs, gas, bus passes, child and health related expenses, groceries, meals, utilities, and books. If you are receiving Financial Aid, eligibility will be based on the cost of attendance and current aid amounts. Awards are based on availability of funds.
Types of emergency awards include:
| Rent | $1200 annually |
| Auto Repairs | $1000 annually |
| Gas | $150 per quarter |
| Bus Pass | $20 per quarter |
| Child Related costs | $1500 per quarter |
| Health Related costs | $500 annually |
| Groceries | $200 per quarter |
| Books | $333 per quarter |
