Emergency Funds

Students sometimes experience unexpected or unforeseen expenses or circumstances that can cause a loss of momentum toward their success. 
 
At UT Permian Basin, we strive each and every day to support our students’ success, and we understand there are times when students experience difficulties that disrupt their academic, professional and personal lives. Not having a place to live, food to eat, or money for transportation or childcare can have a serious impact on a student’s ability to attend school or obtain a degree. 
 
We are proud to offer assistance through our Student Emergency Fund programs. 
Students will receive notification within one week of applying for the COVID-19 Relief Fund and will receive an updated financial aid award letter sent to their UTPB email account.
