Student Care Funds

Imagine trying to study for midterms when rent is past due, and you’re facing eviction. Picture being months away from graduation and being dropped from all your classes because your financial aid ran out. Think about trying to concentrate in class when you haven’t eaten a full meal in days and don’t know when you might again.

MORE THAN 3000 STUDENTS APPLY for emergency financial assistance each semester. Your gift will help ensure that direct support is available when Panthers need it.
