Emergencies happen. We're here to help.
The Association for Corporate Growth provided funds to assist students in meeting short-term emergency financial obligations that threaten their continued enrollment at the university.
Students must demonstrate a need for a short-term loan due to a recent and unexpected change in financial status, explain how this change is prohibiting their attendance in their current classes, and have a sound plan of action to repay the loan within the term the loan is given.
