CARES Act funds are now available to students who qualify.
The federal government passed a law called the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act. The CARES Act provides financial assistance to students for expenses related to the disruption of their studies due to COVID-19.
Miramar Colleges is using a portion of CARES Act funds to provide student relief grants directly to students. These funds are meant to help students pay expenses for technology, health care, childcare, course materials, rent, food, moving or other expenses incurred this semester.
In order to ensure we provide financial support to as many students as possible, we only ask that you apply if your studies have been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
To request a grant:
Fill out the SDCCD Student Relief Grant request form; be sure to review the form carefully.
- You will receive a confirmation email once your request has been received.
- You can track the status of your request by clicking on the link in the confirmation email or visiting the mySDCCD Support Center at https://mysdccd.atlassian.net/servicedesk/customer/portals
- The deadline to submit the application is 03/12/2021 by 5:00pm.
Applications will be reviewed starting March 15th. Please note that submitting an application does not guarantee awarding of funds.
Miramar College remains committed to your success and we are here to help. We hope that these funds will provide some measure of relief during these unprecedented times.
