The student emergency assistance funds are available to assist students facing a financial emergency and unexpected financial burdens unrelated to tuition. These funds assist students enrolled at HACC who would otherwise be forced to postpone or leave their education.

Over the years, student emergency assistance funds have enabled students to achieve their educational goals. While primarily aimed at helping students continue their studies, these funds have occasionally been lifesaving. These funds have assisted a student escape domestic abuse, helped a student whose house was destroyed by fire and provided temporary shelter to a homeless student.

To ensure this process provides assistance to students who truly need extraordinary help, we follow a stringent application and selection process. Each student must apply online and provide an unofficial transcript. The application is then reviewed by a committee to determine if the student qualifies for the emergency assistance.

The number of applications far exceeds the total number of approved applications. YOU can make a direct impact on a student’s ability to continue their education by visiting hacc.edu/GiveNow to make a gift to the student emergency assistance funds.
