These funds were provided to Illinois State to use as emergency funds to assist current students with expenses related to the disruption of campus operations due to the coronavirus pandemic. Student emergency grant funds of up to $500 may be available to current students experiencing a COVID-19 related financial hardship. To determine your eligibility and request these funds, please visit the Illinois State University Emergency Grants Fund page.
