a) Has your institution designated HEERF program funds for a specific purpose or budget objective in future quarters (for example, operation and maintenance of plant, academic programs, residential programs, future institutional aid)? No.
i)If no, are HEERF program funds being held in the institution’s general fund for use as needed? No.
1.1. If no HEERF program funds are being held in the institution’s general fund, explain your institution’s approach (1,000 characters maximum):

ii)If yes, provide the amount designated for a specific purpose or budget objective by calendar year and HEERF program fund:

b) Provide the total amount of HEERF funds expended during the reporting period on each of the following categories:

c. Estimate how much of the lost revenue reported above came from each of the following sources (if applicable):

¹ For the initial report and each report thereafter, institutions should use data suppression or other statistical methodologies to protect the personally identifiable information from student education records consistent with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (20 U.S.C. 1232g; 34 CFR part 99) and any applicable state laws. For this report when the total number of students who received HEERF emergency financial aid grants as undergraduates, graduates, or in total is less than 10, but not 0, then the institution should display the total number of students as less than 10 (“<10”) on the publicly available websites controlled by the institution. Additionally, IHEs should use complementary suppression to protect values that could be inferred otherwise. For example, if the total student count is equal to 25, the undergraduate amount is equal to 20, and the graduate amount equal to 5, IHEs should report both the undergraduate and graduate amount as ‘-‘. The total student count can remain displayed as is.

² For students in both undergraduate and graduate categories, classify as a graduate student.

³ Do NOT include funds from the Institutional Resilience and Expanded Postsecondary Opportunity (IREPO) funds as part of this annual performance report.

⁴ To support expenses related to the disruption f campus operations due to coronavirus consistent with applicable law. This includes eligible expenses under a student’s cost of attendance under CARES Act Section 18004(c), or any component of a 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 childcare, per Section 314(c) of the Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2021 (CRRSAA), and Section 2003 of the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARP)

⁵ The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2022 (P.L. 117-103), signed into law by President Biden on March 15, 2022, expanded the allowable uses of funds for IHEs that received funds under the HEERF (a)(2) programs (ALN 84.425J; T84.425K; 84.425L; 84.425M). Specifically, IHEs that received HEERF (a)(2) grant funds now may expend them on the acquisition of real property, renovations, or construction related to preventing, preparing for, and responding to the coronavirus. Before commencing any renovations, construction, or real property projects supported by HEERF (a)(2) grant funds, grantees must receive approval for the project from the Department.

⁶ Including funding to cover the cost of vaccine distribution.

⁷ Note: Section 2003(5)(B) of the American Rescue Plan (ARP) requires that an institution use a portion of funds received under such Act to conduct direct outreach to financial aid applicants about the opportunity to receive a financial aid adjustment due to the recent unemployment of a family member or independent student, or other circumstances, described in section 479A of the Higher Education Act of 1965 (20 U.S.C. 1087tt). Institutions do not need to report an expense under this category every quarter but must do so at least once during the life of their HEERF grants. Please see the HEERF ARP FAQs for more information.

⁸ Please include funding provided to cover the cost of vaccine distribution in this line. Note: Section 2003(5)(A) of the ARP requires that an institution use a portion of funds received under such act to implement evidence-based practices to monitor and suppress coronavirus in accordance with public health guidelines. Institutions do not need to report an expense under this category every quarter but must do so at least once during the life of their HEERF grants. Please see the HEERF ARP FAQs for more information.

⁹ Please see the Department’s HEERF Lost Revenue FAQs (March 19, 2021) for more information regarding what may be appropriately included in an estimate of lost revenue.

Form Instructions

Completing the Form: On each form, fill out the institution of higher education (IHE or institution) name, the date of the report, the appropriate quarter the report covers (3/31/22, 6/30/22, 9/30/22, 12/31/22), the 11-digit PR/Award Number (number is found in Box 2 of your Grant Award Notification (GAN)) for each HEERF grant funding stream as applicable, the total amount of funds awarded by the Department (including reserve funds if awarded), and check the box if the report is a “final report.” Institutions that expended HEERF grant funds during the calendar quarter from January 1 – March 30, 2021 are required to post the quarterly report that involved the expenditure of HEERF II CRRSAA and HEERF I CARES Act funds. The Department did not previously affirmatively indicate this reporting requirement was in place for HEERF II CRRSAA funds. As such, institutions may have until the end of the second calendar quarter, June 30, 2021, to post these retroactive reports if they have not already done so.

In the charts, an institution must specify the amount of expended HEERF I, II, and IIII funds for each funding category: (a)(1) Institutional Portion; (a)(2), and (a)(3), if applicable. (a)(2) funds include Assistance Listing Numbers (ALNs) 84.425J (Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs)), 84.425K (Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs)), 84.425L (Minority Serving Institutions (MSIs)), 84.425M (Strengthening Institutions Program (SIP)); (a)(3) funds are for ALN 84.425N (Fund for the Improvement of Postsecondary Education (FIPSE) Formula Grant) and 84.425S (SAIHE). Each category is deliberately broad and may not capture specific grant program requirements. Explanatory footnotes help clarify certain reporting categories. Provide brief explanatory notes for how funds were expended, including the title and brief description of each project or activity in which funds were expended. Do not include personally identifiable information (PII). Round expenditures to the nearest dollar. If there is no expenditure to report for a given cell, fill it with a “0.” Please refrain from using any symbols throughout the form, including but not limited to “~.”

Posting the Form: This form must be conspicuously posted on the institution’s primary website on the same page the reports of the IHE’s activities as to the emergency financial aid grants to students made with funds from the IHE’s allocation under (a)(1) of the CARES Act, CRRSAA, and ARP (Student Aid Portion) are posted. It must be posted as a digital PDF. No handwritten or scanned PDFs are allowed. Please refrain from adding additional material to the uploaded form. The PDF must be named in the following manner: [8- digit OPEID]_[Survey Name]_[Quarter/Year]_[Date of Release]. For example, 01177600_HEERF_Q32021_101021. The 8-digit OPEID can be found at the DAPIP website or the NCES website. In the event a DUNS number applies to multiple OPEIDs, use the OPEID for the campus with the highest enrollment. The quarter pertains to the calendar year, following the same cadence the reporting periods follows. The date of release should be reported as the deadline for form submission, 10 days after the end of each reporting period. A new separate form must be posted covering each quarterly reporting period (September 30, December 31, March 31, June 30), concluding after either (1) posting the quarterly report ending September 30, 2023 or (2) when an institution has expended and liquidated all (a)(1) Institutional Portion, (a)(2), and (a)(3) funds and checks the “final report” box. IHEs must post this quarterly report form no later than 10 days after the end of each calendar quarter (October 10, January 10, April 10, July 10). Each quarterly report must be separately maintained in a PDF document linked directly from the IHE’s HEERF reporting webpage. Reports must be maintained for at least three years after the submission of the final report per 2 CFR § 200.333. Any changes or updates after initial posting must be conspicuously noted after initial posting and the date of the change must be noted in the “Date of Report” line.

b) Provide the total amount of HEERF funds expended during the reporting period on each of the following categories:

c. Estimate how much of the lost revenue reported above came from each of the following sources (if applicable):

¹ For the initial report and each report thereafter, institutions should use data suppression or other statistical methodologies to protect the personally identifiable information from student education records consistent with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (20 U.S.C. 1232g; 34 CFR part 99) and any applicable state laws. For this report when the total number of students who received HEERF emergency financial aid grants as undergraduates, graduates, or in total is less than 10, but not 0, then the institution should display the total number of students as less than 10 (“<10”) on the publicly available websites controlled by the institution. Additionally, IHEs should use complementary suppression to protect values that could be inferred otherwise. For example, if the total student count is equal to 25, the undergraduate amount is equal to 20, and the graduate amount equal to 5, IHEs should report both the undergraduate and graduate amount as ‘-‘. The total student count can remain displayed as is.

² For students in both undergraduate and graduate categories, classify as a graduate student.

³ Do NOT include funds from the Institutional Resilience and Expanded Postsecondary Opportunity (IREPO) funds as part of this annual performance report.

⁴ To support expenses related to the disruption f campus operations due to coronavirus consistent with applicable law. This includes eligible expenses under a student’s cost of attendance under CARES Act Section 18004(c), or any component of a 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 childcare, per Section 314(c) of the Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2021 (CRRSAA), and Section 2003 of the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARP)

⁵ The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2022 (P.L. 117-103), signed into law by President Biden on March 15, 2022, expanded the allowable uses of funds for IHEs that received funds under the HEERF (a)(2) programs (ALN 84.425J; T84.425K; 84.425L; 84.425M). Specifically, IHEs that received HEERF (a)(2) grant funds now may expend them on the acquisition of real property, renovations, or construction related to preventing, preparing for, and responding to the coronavirus. Before commencing any renovations, construction, or real property projects supported by HEERF (a)(2) grant funds, grantees must receive approval for the project from the Department.

⁶ Including funding to cover the cost of vaccine distribution.

⁷ Note: Section 2003(5)(B) of the American Rescue Plan (ARP) requires that an institution use a portion of funds received under such Act to conduct direct outreach to financial aid applicants about the opportunity to receive a financial aid adjustment due to the recent unemployment of a family member or independent student, or other circumstances, described in section 479A of the Higher Education Act of 1965 (20 U.S.C. 1087tt). Institutions do not need to report an expense under this category every quarter but must do so at least once during the life of their HEERF grants. Please see the HEERF ARP FAQs for more information.

⁸ Please include funding provided to cover the cost of vaccine distribution in this line. Note: Section 2003(5)(A) of the ARP requires that an institution use a portion of funds received under such act to implement evidence-based practices to monitor and suppress coronavirus in accordance with public health guidelines. Institutions do not need to report an expense under this category every quarter but must do so at least once during the life of their HEERF grants. Please see the HEERF ARP FAQs for more information.

Form Instructions

Completing the Form: On each form, fill out the institution of higher education (IHE or institution) name, the date of the report, the appropriate quarter the report covers (3/31/22, 6/30/22, 9/30/22, 12/31/22), the 11-digit PR/Award Number (number is found in Box 2 of your Grant Award Notification (GAN)) for each HEERF grant funding stream as applicable, the total amount of funds awarded by the Department (including reserve funds if awarded), and check the box if the report is a “final report.” Institutions that expended HEERF grant funds during the calendar quarter from January 1 – March 30, 2021 are required to post the quarterly report that involved the expenditure of HEERF II CRRSAA and HEERF I CARES Act funds. The Department did not previously affirmatively indicate this reporting requirement was in place for HEERF II CRRSAA funds. As such, institutions may have until the end of the second calendar quarter, June 30, 2021, to post these retroactive reports if they have not already done so.

In the charts, an institution must specify the amount of expended HEERF I, II, and IIII funds for each funding category: (a)(1) Institutional Portion; (a)(2), and (a)(3), if applicable. (a)(2) funds include Assistance Listing Numbers (ALNs) 84.425J (Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs)), 84.425K (Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs)), 84.425L (Minority Serving Institutions (MSIs)), 84.425M (Strengthening Institutions Program (SIP)); (a)(3) funds are for ALN 84.425N (Fund for the Improvement of Postsecondary Education (FIPSE) Formula Grant) and 84.425S (SAIHE). Each category is deliberately broad and may not capture specific grant program requirements. Explanatory footnotes help clarify certain reporting categories. Provide brief explanatory notes for how funds were expended, including the title and brief description of each project or activity in which funds were expended. Do not include personally identifiable information (PII). Round expenditures to the nearest dollar. If there is no expenditure to report for a given cell, fill it with a “0.” Please refrain from using any symbols throughout the form, including but not limited to “~.”

Posting the Form: This form must be conspicuously posted on the institution’s primary website on the same page the reports of the IHE’s activities as to the emergency financial aid grants to students made with funds from the IHE’s allocation under (a)(1) of the CARES Act, CRRSAA, and ARP (Student Aid Portion) are posted. It must be posted as a digital PDF. No handwritten or scanned PDFs are allowed. Please refrain from adding additional material to the uploaded form. The PDF must be named in the following manner: [8- digit OPEID]_[Survey Name]_[Quarter/Year]_[Date of Release]. For example, 01177600_HEERF_Q32021_101021. The 8-digit OPEID can be found at the DAPIP website or the NCES website. In the event a DUNS number applies to multiple OPEIDs, use the OPEID for the campus with the highest enrollment. The quarter pertains to the calendar year, following the same cadence the reporting periods follows. The date of release should be reported as the deadline for form submission, 10 days after the end of each reporting period. A new separate form must be posted covering each quarterly reporting period (September 30, December 31, March 31, June 30), concluding after either (1) posting the quarterly report ending September 30, 2023 or (2) when an institution has expended and liquidated all (a)(1) Institutional Portion, (a)(2), and (a)(3) funds and checks the “final report” box. IHEs must post this quarterly report form no later than 10 days after the end of each calendar quarter (October 10, January 10, April 10, July 10). Each quarterly report must be separately maintained in a PDF document linked directly from the IHE’s HEERF reporting webpage. Reports must be maintained for at least three years after the submission of the final report per 2 CFR § 200.333. Any changes or updates after initial posting must be conspicuously noted after initial posting and the date of the change must be noted in the “Date of Report” line.

Once eligibility is determined, the Expected Family Contribution (EFC) is used to establish the award amount with priority given to Pell eligible students.

Students who are awarded have the opportunity to authorize the college to deduct any outstanding balance for tuition, fees and obligations from the emergency aid grant. All students who are approved for the funds receive a notice through eSantaFe asking whether they would like to authorize the college to deduct balances due to the college from the emergency aid grant.

• I authorize the college to deduct any tuition, fees and/or obligations owed from the emergency aid grant funds.

Whether a student chooses to opt in and authorize the deduction or declines to authorize the deduction, will not impact their eligibility for grant funds. If a student opts in and authorizes the deduction, disbursement is processed to the student with applicable credit balances paid to the student after amounts due to the College [at the time of processing] are paid on behalf of the student up to the amount of the grant award. If a student chooses not to authorize the deduction, disbursements are processed to the student in the full amount.

7. In addition to the messaging reported in previous reports, the college sent or published the following HEERF emergency-aid related messages:

• An email message was sent to all student email accounts on January 4^th and again on January 10^th stating the following: The Santa Fe College COVID-19 Emergency Aid Grant III is available to all SF degree seeking students! These grants are funded by the ARP Act. The application is open and available at sfcollege.edu/COVID19aid
• An announcement titled “You may be eligible for a COVID-19 Emergency Aid Grant” was posted in the Canvas learning Management system for all students. The text of the message read, “If you are an enrolled degree seeking student and/or are taking pre-requisite courses here at SF, you can apply for the COVID-19 Emergency Aid Grant III (ARP) using the application at edu/COVID19aid. ALL enrolled students who are degree-seeking and/or taking pre-requisite course(s) qualify for this grant. Completing a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is NOT a requirement for this grant, but it is to your advantage to do so if you qualify to apply. Please apply now but before Friday, March 4, 2022.”
• A banner about COVID-19 emergency aid grants was published on the college’s Ways to Pay page at https://www.sfcollege.edu/fa/ways-to-pay/

• The following e- mail message was sent on January 26^th to the 152 students who were purged from classes for non-fee payment and failed to re-enroll by the time the message was sent. “Our records show that you were recently dropped from your Spring G term classes. Santa Fe College wants you back! The Spring G term starts on February 7, so there's time to re-register. But do it soon so you can still get the sections and times that work for you. You can also apply for COVID-19 aid to pay the cost of tuition. The aid comes in the form of a grant and does not have to be paid back. Remember to follow the instructions on the application carefully. So make sure to registerfor classes, and then apply for the aid!”
• The following text message was sent on January 27^th to 127 students who were purged from classes after the deadline for fee payment passed without the fees being paid 'You can use grant money to pay for Spring G fees! Apply for the grant at sfcollege.edu/covid19aid and re-register for classes now!"

9. The college continues to implement evidence-based practices to monitor and suppress the coronavirus
   1. The college offered vaccine incentives to all employees and students. Any current student at Santa Fe College who documented receiving their final shot of their full allotment of COVID-19 vaccine (second shot of Pfizer or Moderna or single shot of Johnson & Johnson) between November 1, 2021, and March 20, 2022 will receive a one-time, non-recurring payment of $60. Even more, all students who receive the financial incentive are eligible to receive additional rewards through a random drawing. Ten students will be selected at random to receive a $250 book store voucher, and one student will be selected at random to receive tuition – up to 12 credit hours – for the fall 2022 or spring 2023 semester.
   2. Most importantly, the college continues to utilize contact tracers who follow up with all students and staff members who have tested positive for COVID-19 or have experienced any symptoms of COVID-19 within the past 10 days, or who have had close contact with someone who is COVID-19 positive within the past 10 days. Contact tracers use established college policy to determine and communicate when such persons are permitted to return to campus, thereby suppressing the spread of COVID-19.
   3. Finally, unvaccinated student-athletes continue to be regularly tested for COVID-19. This further helps to prevent the spread of COVID-19 during participation in intercollegiate sports.

Implementing evidence-based practices to monitor and suppress the coronavirus

In addition to on-campus vaccination events included in previous reports, the college has collaborated with the Alachua County Health Department to host two more on-campus vaccination events. During this reporting period, the college held- on campus vaccination events on July 20, 2021, and on August 26^th, 2021. Students, faculty and staff were encouraged to attend.

Moreover, the college is offering vaccine incentives to all employees and students. Any current student at Santa Fe College who has received two shots of Pfizer or Moderna or one shot of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine by October 31, 2021, will receive a one-time, non-recurring payment of $60. Even more, all those who receive the financial incentive will also be eligible to receive additional rewards through a random drawing. Participating students will be entered to have an opportunity to receive a $250 bookstore voucher as well as a designated parking spot for the Spring 2022 semester. This incentive program is fully voluntary for anyone who receives the vaccination by October 31. For those who choose to participate, proof of vaccination will be required to be presented for viewing by Student Affairs, either face-to-face or virtually. Details on how to verify vaccination and receive the payment are available at sfcollege.edu/covid19/incentive . Most importantly, the college designated several contact tracers who follow up with all students and staff members who have tested positive for COVID-19 or have experienced any symptoms of COVID-19 within the past 10 days, or who have had close contact with someone who is COVID-19 positive within the past 10 days. Contact tracers use established college policy to determine and communicate when such persons are permitted to return to campus, thereby suppressing the spread of COVID-19.

Finally, unvaccinated student-athletes are regularly tested for COVID-19. This further helps to prevent the spread of COVID-19 during participation in intercollegiate sports.

Higher Education Emergency Relief Funding Information - posted on July 9, 2021

Federal School Code

Santa Fe College (SF) is a recipient of Higher Education Emergency Relief Funds (HEERF). In compliance with the U.S. Department of Education Office of Postsecondary Education guidance and federal regulations regarding the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, & Economic Security (CARES) Act funding, SF provides the following information. This information was reported via this webpage as required 30 days after April 21, 2020, the date SF received its allocation under 18004(a)(1). Subsequently, in January 2021, SF received supplemental funds to offer financial aid grants to students under the Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act (CRRSAA), 2021. In May 2021, SF received additional funds under American Rescue Plan Act, 2021 (ARP) section (a)(1). The information is now updated quarterly for the federal funding period ending June 30, 2021.

1. Santa Fe College (SF) assures that it will use the supplemental funds received under CRRSSA and ARP section (a)(1) Student Aid Portion (CFDA/ALN 84.425E) to provide Emergency Financial Aid Grants to students.
2. SF received a total of $ 17,839,765.00 from the Department pursuant to the institution's Certification and Agreement for Emergency Financial Aid Grants to Students under the CRRSAA and ARP (a)(1) (CFDA/ALN 84.425E).

As SF received its ARP student aid funds in third week of May 2021, for the April 1 through June 30, 2021 reporting period, this number excludes the expanded student eligibility requirements under ARP.
5. Between April 1, 2021 and June 30, 2021, 124 SF students received an Emergency Financial Aid Grant under Section 314(a)(1) of the CRRSAA.

3. Contact information
4. An attestation certifying that funds will be used to cover 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), and/or child care.

Once eligibility is determined, the Expected Family Contribution (EFC) is used to establish the award amount.

Students who are awarded have the opportunity to authorize the college to deduct any outstanding balance for tuition, fees and obligations from the emergency aid grant. All students who are approved for the funds receive a notice through eSantaFe asking whether they would like to authorize the college to deduct balances due to the college from the emergency aid grant.

The student check one of the two boxes:

• I authorize the college to deduct any tuition, fees and/or obligations owed from the emergency aid grant funds.
• I DO NOT authorize the college to deduct any tuition, fees and/or obligations owed from the emergency aid grant funds.

Whether a student chooses to opt in and authorize the deduction or declines to authorize the deduction, will not impact their eligibility for grant funds. If a student opts in and authorizes the deduction, disbursement is processed to the student with applicable credit balances paid to the student after amounts due to the College [at the time of processing] are paid on behalf of the student up to the amount of the grant award. If a student chooses not to authorize the deduction, disbursements are processed to the student in the full amount.

Before January 2021, SF disbursed Emergency Financial Aid Grants to students under Section 18004(a)(1) of the CARES Act and in accordance with Section 484 in Title IV of the Higher Education Act of 1965 as described in the previous reports.

3. As of May 15, 2020, SF has distributed a total of $275,700.00 in Emergency Financial Aid Grants to students under Section 18004(a)(1) of the CARES Act.
4. In accordance with Section 484 in Title IV of the Higher Education Act of 1965, there are an estimated 9,917 SF students eligible to participate in programs and thus eligible to receive Emergency Financial Aid Grants under Section 18004(a)(1) of the CARES Act.
5. As of May 15, 2020, 218 SF students have received an Emergency Financial Aid Grant under Section 18004(a)(1) of the CARES Act.

SF to date has utilized two distinct methods to determine which students receive Emergency Financial Aid Grants and how much they receive under Section 18004(a)(1) of the CARES Act. SF continues to refine its process and approach while keeping the needs of students paramount. SF will update this information as new approaches are implemented and existing ones are modified.

• The first method involved an analysis of the impact of remote services particularly on Spring 2020 students in clock-hour based Career and Technical Education Programs. Those students eligible to participate in programs under Section 484 of Title IV of the Higher Education Act of 1965 were awarded $1,500 each (the maximum award amount authorized by the college) to ease the hardships associated with being unable to complete program hours or receive financial aid funds. This is not an ongoing method and has been completed.
  
  
• The second method requires students to complete the COVID-19 Emergency Aid application located on the college’s website. Applicants must provide the following:
  1. Name
  2. Student identification number
  3. Contact information
  4. Type of emergency aid requested (childcare, course materials, food, health care, housing, technology).
  5. The total amount of emergency aid requested.
  6. A narrative on how COVID-19 impacted their ability to continue at SF.
  7. Verifiable, supporting documentation associated with each type of aid requested, if possible.

Applicants must certify that the information that they have submitted is true and accurate. Each application is reviewed by the 7 members of the college’s COVID-19 Emergency Aid Committee. Once eligibility was determined, the committee awarded grant amounts using pre-determined amounts for rent costs, utility costs and childcare costs. These amounts were established based on averages determined by analyzing data from SF’s longtime Life Happens Emergency Aid grant program. Additionally, because it is expected that those students who carried a higher course load and were further along in their academic career experienced a greater economic impact because of COVID-19, an additional amount was awarded to students to meet their needs using a rubric considering the number of credit hours earned at SF and the number of current courses. The maximum award per student is $1500.

Students were provided with the following message about the availability of Emergency Aid:

“SF President Paul Broadie II announced the establishment of a COVID-19 Emergency Aid Grant designed to help students who find themselves financially impacted. This grant, funded by the CARES Act, will be awarded to help students having a temporary financial crisis resulting from COVID-19 so that they may remain enrolled at SF, continue their education and work toward graduation. Students interested in applying should visit sfcollege.edu/COVID19AID to complete the application. The grant can be used to help students with food, housing, course materials, technology, health care and childcare. To be eligible, the grant applicant must meet all the following requirements:

• Be a currently enrolled student at SF
• Be eligible to receive federal financial aid
• Complete the online COVID-19 Emergency Aid Grant application
• Upload supportive and verifiable documentation of negative financial impact of COVID-19 (e.g. notification of reduction of work hours, layoff or furlough)
• Be available and respond to the SF Ombudsperson Dr. Bea Awoniyi when she reaches out
• Have not previously received a COVID-19 Emergency Aid Grant

All grant applications will be reviewed by the college’s COVID-19 Emergency Aid Review Committee. They will evaluate the documentation and consider comments from the Ombudsperson. Students will be notified on the status of their application via their SF email address. Students receiving grant money will have the funds disbursed to their Bank Mobile student account.

"We look forward to receiving your applications. Santa Fe College is focused on helping our students continue to persevere during these challenging times to achieve their educational goals.”

The above message was delivered not only in a direct email message from President Broadie to all students, but the same or similar verbiage was shared by numerous college employees and by the marketing team to reach students repeatedly and in numerous settings, including social media.
