The Richard H. Tyler Student Emergency Fund is available to support currently enrolled students who are in danger from withdrawing from their classes due to an unexpected, temporary financial hardship. This hardship could be a result of illness, family crisis, natural disaster, or other emergency or crisis situations. Funds are intended to cover temporary costs that may hinder a student from succeeding academically or from meeting their basic needs. Currently enrolled students are eligible to apply for the RHTSEF in UAccess Student Center and may be awarded once each academic year.
