Our Process
The Office of Financial Aid at 花儿直播 reserved $100,000 of it鈥檚 allocation of $1,738,032 in funding for students who petitioned for adjustments to their Financial Aid through the Professional Judgement process.
花儿直播 issued the first round of funding to students with a $0 Student Aid Index (SAI) that were enrolled at 花儿直播 as of the first day of class for the Fall 2021 semester (August 23rd, 2021). Applications were not requested nor required. Eligible students were awarded through ARP.
For the second round of funding, 花儿直播 sent a response form to students enrolled as of the Census date for Fall 2021 (September 15th, 2021). The response form is being used to determine if students would like the funds given directly to them or applied to any outstanding balance due to 花儿直播. Students are not required to complete the form to be awarded. Eligible students who do not complete the form will be issued a check directly to them.
As part of ARP, the Higher Education Emergency Relief Fund III provided emergency funds to higher education institutions to provide grants for students and to support institutional expenses related to COVID-19.
At least 50 percent of the funds received must be used to provide emergency grants for students who have incurred costs directly related to COVID-19. Examples include, but are not limited to: housing, food, technology, course materials, child care, and healthcare needs.
On June 30th, 2021, 花儿直播 submitted the signed certification and agreement to receive this emergency funding. Under this agreement, the University will use at least 50 percent of the allocated funds to award emergency grants to students.
花儿直播 was allocated $3,702,051 in funding from ARP. At least $1,738,032 of that allocation will be spent as emergency grants to students.

Per the request of the Secretary of Education, financial need was considered when determining the amount of the grant for each student. Emergency grants were distributed as follows:
- Students who met the eligibility requirements for the first round of funding were issued emergency grants of $1,000 each directly to the student.
For the second round of funding, the remaining emergency grant funds, less a portion reserved for Professional Judgement cases, will be evenly distributed amongst all students enrolled as of 花儿直播鈥檚 Census Date of September 25th, 2021 for the Fall 2021 semester.
Students who submit a petition for an adjustment to the Financial Aid Award through the Professional Judgement process will be issued additional emergency grants using the reserved portion until funds have been exhausted.
On October 1st, 2021, all students enrolled as of the University鈥檚 Census Date (September 25th, 2021) for Fall 2021 were sent an email informing them about the ARP emergency grants. Students were provided with an optional response form to communicate if the funds should be issued directly to them or applied to any balance owed to 花儿直播.
This website will be updated at the quarterly intervals indicated by the Secretary of Education.
The remaining $1,739,639 of 花儿直播's allocation not marked for student emergency grants is classified as the Institutional Portion. These funds were used to cover loss revenue from academic sources.
