Through our work, CEW+ has recognized the financial challenges students may navigate around managing educational costs as they complete their degree program. The CEW+ Graduation Grant Program is focused on providing one-time grants (up to $5,000) covering student account charges (including tuition, fees, etc) to a limited number of students experiencing an unexpected financial setback in the final term of their degree. With these grant allocations, we hope to eliminate the financial barriers that may prevent a student from graduating.

CEW+ staff will review and evaluate applications with support from the Office of Financial Aid. Applying for a Graduation Grant does not guarantee that a student will receive a grant. Grant awardees will be determined by random selection until program funding for the semester is exhausted. CEW+ will notify applicants of their application status during the timeline listed above, and provide additional information about funding disbursement to those selected to receive a grant.
