COVID-19 Information

The federal Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2021 (CRRSAA): Higher Education Emergency Relief Fund (HEERF II) and the federal American Rescue Plan Act, 2021(HEERF III) were recently signed into law, providing financial resources to colleges and universities. The resources available through the Higher Education Emergency Relief II and III (HEER II and III) Funds allow universities to distribute grants to students in need to cover any component of the student’s cost of attendance or any emergency costs that arise due to coronavirus.

The amount given to designated students from the HEER II and III Fund is based on eligibility for need-based federal financial aid and the Expected Family Contribution (EFC) generated from the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). For the spring 2022 semester, grants will range from $500 - $1500. Students who qualify for a HEER III Fund grant will be notified via email.
