Short Term Emergency Loans

As a service to students, the Financial Aid Office provides short-term loans to students when tuition arrangements have already been made for the upcoming semester. These limited loans ($300 maximum) are typically used for the purchase of textbooks and supplies.

Contact the Office of Financial Aid, Pew Student Services, or the Regional Center that you are attending to obtain an application for a Short Term Emergency Loan, along with eligibility requirements, and repayment information
