The Student Emergency Assistance Grant (SEAG) is a funding opportunity intended to provide monetary assistance to students experiencing unforeseen emergencies or situations that affect their ability to attend classes. The application process is a low-barrier process and is available both online and on paper to ensure as many students as possible can be served.
Additionally, as a means to provide continued support, students who apply will hear from the Community Resource Manager to help identify any additional barriers and offer support. Whether it is by finding additional campus resources or sending referrals to community partners, our goal is to diminish barriers that could derail your education.
April 25, 2023 is the last day to apply for funding this school year. Students who need additional resources after this date can contact the seag@cptc.edu.
