Spring 2021 COVID-19 Emergency Grant

The Office of Student Financial Aid (OSFA) has now launched the Spring 2021 COVID-19 Emergency Grant process for those students and families who have had a change in their financial situation due to the COVID-19 Pandemic.

This program is the same as in Fall 2020, however, financial aid has streamlined the application and filing process to encourage students to apply.

There is limited funding for Spring 2021 and funds are available on a first come, first served basis. Students must be Title IV eligible.

To apply, please students can visit the Program FAQs here: https://financialaid.uic.edu/faq/

Or, students can reach out directly to their Financial Aid Counselor: https://financialaid.uic.edu/faq/contact-us/

OSFA will continue to be open in SSB Monday – Friday, 8:30am to 5pm throughout Spring term to assist students in person with this process.

For students who do not meet the qualifications for this program, there is still funding available from the U and I Care Emergency Grant program for students requiring emergency assistance.
