EMERGENCY GRANTS
Help a current student in need
The Faculty Association provides emergency grants for currently enrolled Maricopa Community College students. These emergency grants are designed to prevent students from dropping out of school mid-semester due to unforeseen financial emergencies.
To be eligible for an emergency grant student must meet the following criteria:
- experience an emergency (defined as an unforeseen non-academic expense or event)
- must be a currently enrolled MCCCD student
- tuition, fees, books, and course-required supplies/subscriptions are not eligible expenses,
- students may only receive one grant
Faculty who become aware of a student with an emergency need that meets the criteria should complete the MCCCD Faculty Foundation Emergency Grant Request Form. The following information is required:
Obtain the student’s name and current MCCCD ID number.
A brief explanation of the student’s circumstances.
A request for a specific amount on behalf of the student.
We rely on you to verify the student is currently enrolled and has a genuine need. DO NOT refer your student to the Faculty Foundation contact.
The Faculty Foundation Board usually makes an award within 48 hours of receiving a request from a professor. If you cannot reach your college contact, email one of the Faculty Foundation Board of Directors Officers.
