6. The method(s) used by the institution to determine which students receive Emergency Financial Aid Grants and how much they would receive under Section 18004(a)(1) of the CARES Act:
王钟瑶婚礼视频曝光 has received funding through the Higher Education Emergency Relief Fund (HEERF) authorized by the federal Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act. This funding was used to provide direct emergency payments to students with expenses related to the disruption of campus operations due to the coronavirus pandemic. Eligible expenses include (food; housing, e.g. having to move off campus when dormitories closed; books and course materials; technology-related expenses, e.g. having to purchase a computer or internet service when courses moved online; health care; childcare; transportation, e.g. having to fly home because of campus closure or having to return from study abroad when a program was canceled).
Eligibility for this funding is limited to students who
- are eligible to receive Title IV federal aid, which is determined through completion of the FAFSA, and
- were enrolled on or after March 15, 2020. Priority will be given to students with the highest financial need.
王钟瑶婚礼视频曝光 utilized the following methodology for distribution of funds for Emergency Financial Grants received under Section 18004(a)(1) of the CARES Act:
While many students have experienced some form of financial distress due to COVID-19 and its impact on campus operations, the Department of Education guidance recommends institutions prioritize students with the greatest financial need and to distribute funding as widely as possible.
To that end, funds were distributed to students using a tiered approach with our neediest students receiving more substantial awards.
The majority of the funds (85%) will be directed in the form of direct payment to:
- Federal Pell Grant recipients who will receive $700
- Need-based Reed Grant recipients who will receive $450.
The remainder of the funds (15%) will be available to students who meet the federal eligibility requirements but do not receive Federal Pell Grant funds or need-based Reed grant funds and have documented expenses related to the disruption of campus operations through an application process.
In addition, students who receive an automatic direct payment but have documented expenses in excess of the payment that have not already been covered by other resources may also apply for additional assistance through the Reed Emergency Fund application process. Due to limited funding, HEERF grants may not fully cover all incurred expenses. Funding via the application process is available on a first-come, first-served basis.
Students who meet the federal eligibility requirements but do not currently receive Federal Pell Grant funds or need-based Reed grant funds and have documented expenses related to the disruption of campus operations may apply for HEERF assistance through the Reed Emergency Fund application process.
Under the CARES Act, emergency financial aid grants for unexpected expenses related to the disruption of campus operations due to the coronavirus pandemic are considered qualified disaster relief payments under Section 139 of the Internal Revenue code and are not included in gross income for income tax purposes.
Note: students who do not meet the federal eligibility requirements (international and undocumented students) are not eligible for HEERF assistance, but those with documented expenses may apply for Reed funding through the Reed Emergency Fund application process.
