Students were able to apply for available emergency funds through a Formstack application and received funding prior to the end of the 2020-2021 academic year. Students who were not able to meet the application deadline were encouraged to apply using the Students’ Treasure Chest application. Those applications were reviewed utilizing the same criteria as the HEERF process and distributed throughout the late spring and summer months.
