Ferris Cares

At Ferris State University, we believe that no Bulldog should face life’s challenges alone. If you’re experiencing difficulties meeting basic needs such as food, housing, transportation, or other essential resources, the Ferris Cares program is here for you.

Our mission is to remove barriers that may interfere with your academic and personal success, so you can stay focused on your goals and thrive as a Bulldog. We’re committed to walking alongside you and connecting you with the right support when you need it most.
