IRSC to Distribute CARES Act Funds

IRSC to Distribute CARES Act Funds

May 12, 2020 Suzanne Seldes

Today, Indian River State College launched the process for distribution of Federal CARES Act grant monies to assist eligible students impacted by the by the disruption of campus operations due to COVID-19. Funds are currently designated for students that attended IRSC in the spring 2020 semester, and will be disbursed on a first-come, first-serve basis, until exhausted. Students who meet grant criteria will be notified by the College through email and/or text messaging on how to proceed with the application process.

 
The College followed the strict guidance of the U.S. Department of Education in their interpretation of the CARES Act funding, particularly with respect to eligibility of the awards. Award amounts were determined in alignment with student anticipated need, per Expected Family Contribution, and based upon both the total number of eligible students and total amount of funding made available to IRSC.
