Brockton Hospital School of Nursing CRRSAA Act Application
Today May 11, 2022
The CRRSAA allocation for spring 2022 has been completely allocated no more funds available.
The Federal CRRSAA Act Funding
The Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act (CRRSAA) Higher Education Emergency Relief Act II has provided funds to Signature Healthcare Brockton Hospital School of Nursing (SH/BHSON) to provide emergency financial aid grants to students whose lives continue to be disrupted due to COVID-19.
SH/BHSON has allocated $200,000 from the Insititional portion of the CARES Act Grant to award to eligible students who complete and submit the application.
This act follows most of the guidelines of the previous CARES Act rules and regulations with some notable changes in regards to eligibility for funding and eligible expenses. Students may apply for funds for expenses incurred on or after December 27, 2020. Financial aid grants for students may be used for any component of the student’s cost of attendance or for emergency costs that arise due to coronavirus, such as tuition, food, housing, health care (including mental health care) or child care.
Applicants must be attending either online or in person, as of the 2020-2021 or 2021-2022 academic year. Please note that the CRRSAA requires that institutions prioritize students with exceptional need, such as students who receive Pell Grants, in awarding financial aid grants to students.
All applications will be reviewed and every effort will be made to connect students to other financial resources if they are not eligible to receive CRRSAA funds or are seeking additional funding.
Students are eligible to apply more than once during the year, provided that funding is still available. If approved, funds will be delivered by check or applied to the student SH/BHSON account, if authorized by the student.
