Ferris Relief Fund

Ferris Relief Fund

The purpose of the Ferris Relief Fund is to promote student retention and academic success. Funding is intended to provide short-term assistance to help address a student’s unmet financial need when other viable options have been exhausted and/or urgent circumstances arise.  Students who are determined to not have any unmet financial need are not eligible for this funding, however changes in a student’s circumstances may warrant a re-evaluation of their expected cost of attendance thereby creating the possibility for an allocation of funds. The average award has been approximately $1,059.

We seek to maximize the impact of the fund by helping as many students as possible and generally don’t make larger awards.
