Emergency assistance is intended as a one-time award per academic year for unforeseeable emergency situations. Assistance up to $750 is available to eligible students experiencing a financial emergency—defined as an unforeseen expense that, if not resolved quickly, could lead to the student’s departure from the college and a loss of momentum toward completion.
Eligible expenses include housing/rent, childcare, food/meals, gas, medical/dental expenses, personal automobile expenses, public transportation/bus pass and utilities.
Expenses that are NOT eligible are expected school expenses such as parking, fines, fees, tuition, books, laptop, laptop/computer equipment, course supplies and program required tools/equipment.
