The money to finish may already be on your campus.

Many colleges keep emergency funds for students facing a sudden shortfall, like a lab fee, a balance blocking registration, or a laptop that died mid-semester. Most students never hear about them. Search your school to see what's available and where to apply.

Find your school's emergency funds.

Start typing your school's name. We'll show you what we found on its own website, with a link to every source so you can check it yourself.

SCHOOL EMERGENCY AID FINDER

How It Works

Search your school. Type at least two letters and pick your campus from the list.

See what's there. Each option links straight to the page on your school's website where we found it.

Track what you've tried. Mark the options you've already applied for so you know where to go next.

Your search stays on your device. We don't see which school you looked up or anything you mark, and nothing is stored. Details can change, so your school's financial aid office always has the final word.

IF YOUR SCHOOL CAN’T CLOSE THE GAP

That’s what we’re here for

Last Mile Education Fund provides gap support to students in the final 6–18 months of an innovation-workforce degree. When a few hundred dollars stands between you and graduation, we move in weeks, not semesters. Our awards are structured as cash gifts, so you keep every dollar.
