The Student Emergency Aid Fund for actively enrolled learners is here to support you if an unexpected financial challenge is getting in the way of your education.

This fund can help with expenses such as:

• Unanticipated car repairs or transportation issues

• Family emergencies

• Unanticipated loss of a job

• Unanticipated loss of housing

• Utilities shut-off notices

• Food insecurity (not having enough food)

• Tuition 

  • Limited support is available if you are in your final semester at HFC or within 6 credit hours of completing your degree

• Other emergencies that could prevent you from completing your current educational goals

Opportunity Details

• The fund is designed for short-term, immediate, emergency needs.

• Awards are typically $500 or less, but additional funding may be approved in specific, documented circumstances.

• Each request is reviewed individually, based on your situation.

Eligibility Criteria

You may apply if you:

• Are enrolled at HFC in good standing and attending class when you make your request (and when it is approved).

• Fully complete the Student Emergency Aid Fund application.

• Provide any required supporting documentation (requests are handled case by case).

Note: The FAFSA is not required, but completing it is strongly encouraged. Some types of aid require a FAFSA on file, and filing could give you access to additional resources.
