President's Student Emergency Fund
The President's Student Emergency Fund was created by the HCC Foundation, with President Christina Royal and through the generosity of alumni and friends, in order to assist students who encounter an unforeseen financial emergency that would prevent them from continuing their education. The Student Emergency Fund is intended to assist students so that they may continue their studies and successfully complete their coursework. Dollars are intended for unexpected emergency expenses. Applications are reviewed on a case-by-case basis based on the criteria listed below.
Please check back in the fall, when the application period will once again be open. In the meantime, email psef@hcc.edu if you have pressing questions or concerns.
HCC aspires to be a college of academic excellence known for helping students overcome barriers to success.
