The Dean of Students Office provides financial support to full-time Carleton students who are experiencing a financial hardship due to an unanticipated event. Emergency funds are distributed on a case-by-case basis and do not need to be repaid.
The amount given is determined by the need and subject to the availability of funds.
A portion of emergency funding is made possible by the Minnesota Office of Higher Education and the State of Minnesota.
How it Works
- Generally, students may receive funding once per academic year.
- Funds are typically up to $250, but may be higher dependent on the circumstance.
- Typically students are not reimbursed for money already spent, but exceptions may be made based on the situation.
Emergency Funding Request Form
Please submit the form below to be considered for emergency funding. After submission, you will be contacted by a staff member in the Dean of Students Office to discuss your circumstances. Consultation with campus partners (i.e. Student Financial Aid) may take place as part of the process.
This program is independent of the financial aid application process. If you have special circumstances that relate directly to the financial aid process, please contact Student Financial Aid.
