Additional Resources

Student Emergency Loan Fund
Short-term loans may be made to students requiring immediate funds for educational or survival purposes. You must make an appointment for an interview with the Financial Assistance and Awards Advisor to apply for an emergency loan.

Student Lines of Credit
Student lines of credit are different from traditional government loans because, once approved, you only take out what you need, when you need it, as many times as you want (up to your credit limit). And, you pay interest only on the funds that you use.
