Federal COVID Student Relief Funding
From 2020-2022, UAA had received federal funds intended to support financially needy students during the COVID pandemic from the Higher Education Emergency Relief Funds (HEERF) legislation under the CARES Act, the Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act (CRRSA), and most recently, the American Rescue Plan (ARP). For more information visit UAA's HEERF Funding Response.
While there is no longer funding available from this program students may be eligible for federal funding through the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).
