Students who demonstrated unexpected expenses or hardships related to the disruption of campus operations due to coronavirus are asked to submit applications, as described below. The student applications are reviewed by a committee, which sorts the applications based on the severity of the disruption(s), with students who experienced more than one overlapping hardship being prioritized. Students are awarded funds based on the losses they showed, up to a set dollar amount, determined by taking an average of all the estimated expenses submitted. Students have more than one opportunity to apply for funds, in order to ensure that there would be ongoing opportunities for affected individuals to receive assistance up to an annual award cap of $6,300. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis until funding is depleted. Due to limitations in funding, priority review will go to first-time applications.

Some examples of what CARES funding cannot cover:
