Emergency Aid Application

Emergency Aid is to provide limited, last-resort, financial assistance to currently enrolled degree-seeking students who are experiencing a sudden emergency, accident, or unforeseen event that requires emergency monetary assistance in order to support their ability to stay enrolled and focused on their academic career. These funds are one-time institutional funds that are administered as long as funding is available. Student must be meeting enrollment and financial aid grant requirements to be considered. Those without a financial aid application (FAFSA or TASFA), or whose aid is not exhausted, may be offered an emergency loan which will need to be repaid within the semester.
