Dean of Students Emergency Fund
Please visit the Dean of Students webpage for important student resources. The Richard H. Tyler Student Emergency Fund application is available to support our students who are in danger from withdrawing due to an unexpected, temporary financial hardship as a result of illness, family crisis, natural disaster, or other emergency or crisis situations. The fund is intended to assist UA students by providing subsidies solely for unexpected emergency expenses. The Richard H. Tyler Student Emergency Fund is intended to cover temporary costs that may hinder a student from succeeding academically or from meeting their basic needs. Therefore, students may only apply for assistance once per academic year.
