ASK THE ADVOCATE
Q. I am experiencing a financial emergency. Are there any resources available to help me?
A. To assist UofL students who encounter an unforeseen financial emergency or catastrophic event, the Student Emergency Fund was created. Our goal is to help students during a time of need stay in school and make progress towards a degree. These funds are not intended to be used for routine expenses or as a consistent supplement to a student’s educational funding sources. An event or unforeseeable circumstance must be the cause of the loss of funds to be eligible for student emergency funds. Students may apply when they have exhausted all
other resources. Students, if awarded, are not required to repay the funding amount. To apply, visit
www.santafedesignstudio.com/dos/help/studentemergencyfund.
