We recognize that students may encounter 不可预见的重大挑战 that create financial emergencies, hindering their ability to pursue their education. In response, USA created an opportunity for students to apply for 南在乎 Emergency Assistance for immediate, essential expenses due to temporary hardship.

This 一次性援助 aims to alleviate short-term financial burdens and is not intended to replace or 补充现有的财政援助. Eligible students must have exhausted all federal financial aid options and meet additional criteria outlined below in order to be considered.

We acknowledge the uniqueness of each student's situation, and every request will be carefully and confidentially considered. Typically, funding ranges from $50 to $500 and will be applied directly to the student's university account for disbursement.  These funds do not need to be repaid.
