To be considered eligible to receive funding from the Student CARE & Emergency Fund, Meal Swipe Bank, Emergency Housing, or other basic needs support, the student must:
- Be currently enrolled as a full-time, undergraduate, degree-seeking student
- Be in good academic, financial, and conduct standing.
- Demonstrate financial hardship due to an emergency situation, or for unanticipated and compelling circumstances that jeopardize the student’s ability to successfully continue at AIC.
- Consider and utilize other sources of funding as appropriate, such as recommended student loans, unless not available in a sufficiently timely manner.
- Have not received funding from the Student Emergency Fund (SEF) in the past 12 months (for emergency funding only).
Priority for Student Emergency Funds will be given based on:
- The urgency of the situation.
- The student’s overall financial picture and level of hardship.
- Whether other resources/support available to the student have been utilized.
