State College of Florida-Manatee issued the following announcement.
State College of Florida, Manatee-Sarasota (SCF) has created an emergency fund for students who have experienced economic hardship related to COVID-19. Through the fund, SCF is disbursing one-time grants of up to $500 to eligible students on a first-come, first-served basis.
The money has been allocated to SCF as part of the federal coronavirus relief bill. Students may use the grants to pay for expenses related to the disruption of campus operations due to COVID-19, including food, housing, course materials, technology, health care and child care. Receiving a grant does not affect a student’s federal financial aid eligibility.
Students are invited to review the eligibility criteria and download an application by visiting SCF.edu/Coronavirus and selecting the “Financial Aid – Application for CARES Act” button.
