Education Student Emergency Fund

The College of Education's Student Emergency Fund is intended to support students who face unexpected hardships that have an immediate impact on their personal and/or academic wellbeing such as job loss or unstable housing. The fund is designated to offset short-term financial need and is not intended to replace or supplement financial aid. Emergency funds are automatically applied to the tuition account balance.

All enrolled students with a major in the College of Education are eligible to apply for emergency funds. Students must be in good academic standing and provide a written statement detailing hardship and request for support. Funding requests will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis with decisions made within 10 business days.
