Federal CARES Act Student Emergency Aid Funds at Randolph

更新

概述

det365亚洲版是 of Congress passing the Coronavirus Aid, 救援, and Economic Security (CARES) Act, Randolph has been allocated $332,437 in emergency student aid to assist eligible students who incurred “expenses related to the disruption of campus operations due to coronavirus, 比如食物, 住房, 课程材料, 技术, 卫生保健, 儿童保育费用.”

Once the CARES Act was passed into law, it fell to the Department of Education (ED) to provide guidance to higher education institutions regarding implementation of the provisions. Guidance from ED was key in determining how the funds would be distributed to our students. The key components of this guidance that played a factor in our decision are the following:

  • Funds can only be awarded to students for “expenses related to the disruption of campus operations due to coronavirus, 比如食物, 住房, 课程材料, 技术, 卫生保健, 儿童保育费用.”
  • Students receiving these funds must meet the eligibility criteria in Section 484 of the Title IV Higher Education Act. 这包括, 但不限于, the demonstration of the following: be making satisfactory academic progress; not owe an overpayment on Title IV grants or loans; not be in default on a Title IV loan; file “as part of the original financial aid application process” a certification that includes statement of educational purpose and valid Social Security Number, 是美国人.S. 公民或国家, 永久居民, or other eligible noncitizen; have returned fraudulently obtained Title IV funds if convicted of or pled guilty or no contest to charges; not have fraudulently received Title IV loans in excess of annual or aggregate limits; have repaid Title IV loan amounts in excess of annual or aggregate limits if obtained inadvertently; have Selective Service registration verified (if student is a male); not have a federal or state conviction for drug possession or sale, with certain time limitations. While this does not specify students must complete a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), the only way to determine if a student meets the Section 484 requirements is for a FAFSA to be filed.

谁将获得资金?

det365亚洲版是 of this guidance, Randolph will be awarding the emergency financial aid funds from the CARES Act to Spring 2020 enrolled students who are in a degree program, have a 2019-20 FAFSA on file with Randolph, and meet the Section 484 criteria.

As with other institutions of higher education, 75% of Randolph’s CARES Act allocation was based on enrollment of Pell grant recipients, while the remaining 25% was based on total enrollment. 因此, Randolph is allocating 75% of its CARES Act funding evenly to students who received Pell grants during the Spring 2020 semester, and the remaining 25% evenly to all other eligible students. This formula results in each Pell student receiving an award of $1,222, and each non-Pell student receiving an award of $291.

Timeframe and Process for Awarding

Upon Randolph’s receipt of a student’s CARES Act Distribution Form confirming that he/she has incurred “expenses related to the disruption of campus operations due to coronavirus, 比如食物, 住房, 课程材料, 技术, 卫生保健, 儿童保育费用,” a check will be mailed to the address provided in the form. Checks can take up to two weeks to process. Students who have not incurred such expenses should decline the award.
