Emergency Aid
Our supportive community strives to help when needs arise. For honors students facing unexpected financial hardship, the financial assistance below can address their specific situations.
University Honors Program Emergency Aid Fund
- Award amount: Up to $500
- Submission due date: Rolling
The University Honors Program provides grants to current honors students facing an unforeseen expense, emergency, or financial crisis. A committee of honors staff and faculty members review applications on a rolling basis, with determinations typically made within a week of the committee receiving a student’s request. This fund is administered by the honors program in collaboration with KU’s Emergency Aid Network; students submit one application through EAN's homepage, which puts them in consideration for all of the network's participating emergency funds.
