What resources are available for students in financial crisis?
The
Student Crisis Fund provides quick-response, one-time grants in the event of a
qualifying emergency. Funds can be used toward essential academic needs (books and supplies); replacement of lost or damaged items; or basic needs such as utilities, childcare, short-term housing or transportation. Average awards are $100-$1,000.
Students with
special circumstances are encouraged to contact Student Financial Services to learn more about what additional resources are available. Please note that the office is practicing social distancing strategies to help prevent the spread of COVID-19. To help us maintain the best customer service possible, please submit any financial aid questions or concerns via e-mail to
fao@newpaltz.edu.
