CARES ACT EMERGENCY GRANT COMMUNICATION SPRING 2020 REGISTERED STUDENTS WHO DO NOT HAVE A 2019-2020 FAFSA ON FILE WITH THE COLLEGE
Dear Student,
Hope this email finds you and your family well.
B´ÎÔª has been selected as an institution to distribute Federal CARES Act Emergency Grants to students.
The College must first confirm a student’s eligibility prior to distributing the Emergency Grants.
The US Department of Education requires a recipient to be Title IV eligible. Title IV eligible means that a student must meet the following criteria: one) be a citizen or eligible non-citizen; two) be enrolled in an eligible degree program; three) be registered for selective service (, if applicable); and four) not be in default in a federal student loan.
The fastest way to confirm Title IV eligibility is for a student to complete the 2019-20 FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid). In order for the College to confirm if you are eligible for the Federal CARES Emergency Grants, you must file the 2019-20 FAFSA.
You may complete this form online via fafsa.ed.gov. Please be sure to select the 2019-20 FAFSA application. Please be sure to add the B´ÎÔª school code: 002772.
To be eligible for Federal CARES Act Emergency Grants consideration you must file the 2019-20 FAFSA application no later than Thursday, May 7, 2020.
If you have any questions related to this process, please do not hesitate to ask.
Sincerely,
Margaret M McGrail
Vice President, Enrollment Services
