Student Emergency Fund
The Eastern Michigan University Student Emergency Fund assists EMU students by providing financial support with unexpected emergency expenses. Students sometimes have unforeseen circumstances that greatly impact their lives. The fund allows students to meet their needs and continue their education.
Students may apply for the fund once they have exhausted other resources. The funding is a one time option and does not need to be repaid. The purpose of the EMU Student Emergency Fund is to award a one-time monetary assistance to students who are experiencing an unforeseen crisis; to cover expenses which can impact a student’s ability to continue their education. EMU students may request up $750. The funding will be awarded on a case-by-case basis, after evaluating the student’s need and circumstance. Upon approval of the EMU Student Emergency Funds application, the funds will be paid into the student’s account. Visit this page for more information and to apply.
