Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (CARES) Emergency Grants for Students are federal funds dispersed to support students who were directly impacted by “the disruption of campus operations due to coronavirus.” The CARES Act was passed by Congress and signed into law on March 27, 2020. One aspect of the act was the creation of the Higher Education Emergency Relief Fund (HEERF). HEERF provides funds to institutions for emergency grants to students whose lives have been disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Visit the HEERF Emergency Grants website for more.
LTCC received approximately $174,463 to support current students with. Funding was distributed in 2020 and in Winter, Spring and Fall quarters of 2021 and 2022.
In order to be considered for the LTCC CARES Emergency Grants, you MUST submit a FAFSA application (limited exceptions may apply) or the California Dream Act application.
If you need assistance with financial aid, help is available on Cranium Cafe or contact our Financial Aid Department at (530) 830-0081 or by email at financialaid@ltcc.edu.
Each student’s eligibility will be reviewed against the federal guidelines provided to institutions. Grants will be awarded based on need, enrollment status, and availability of funds.
Funds will be distributed to eligible students via Bank Mobile.
You will be contacted via your LTCC student email.
Yes, you may receive CARES grant funding more than once. In order to fully support as many students as possible, priority will be given to students who have not received funds before.
LTCC is committed to supporting our students' needs. Please reach out to shaferl@ltcc.edu in order to learn more about available resources.
Unfortunately, they are not. However, at LTCC we have identified funds to support our non-U.S. citizen students. ALL students at LTCC are encouraged to use the CARES Grant application for aid; your information will remain private.
