The emergency fund I received helped me to buy a laptop where 75% of the cost was covered. As an International student, I have a lot to do and I struggled initially as I don’t have enough money to buy a laptop. I explained my family condition as well as my financial situation and requested the Dean of Students Office (Emily) for support to have a laptop. Thus the emergency fund helped me well and I am glad to inform you that I received 3.88 GPA including the Academic Citation Award for Excellence during Winter 2023.

Thank you, the CARE team, for this assistance; words can't express my gratitude! I'm very thankful to be able to stay in my classes; taking care of this is a huge weight lifted off my shoulders.

This semester I received emergency funds from the Dean of Students with the help of Emily First. I was in a financial crisis with my winter classes, due to me withdrawing from classes from grieving. Emily reached out to me with a solution and I felt grateful and stress free from any financial crisis. I would like to take this time to thank Emily First and the Dean of students for all of their help, the Emergency Funds made a major huge impact.
