Financial Emergencies
The Ross and Carol Nese College of Nursing recognizes that students may experience unforeseen financial emergencies. If you are in need of short-term financial assistance, please submit an application for funding support from the College’s emergency funds:
Application for Emergency Funds
In rare cases, awards from these funds may impact the amount of aid that a student receives from other sources – most often by reducing the amount of student or parent educational loans. However, this only occurs if a student is already receiving financial aid up to their total cost of attendance for the semester awarded.
