Emergency Information

Listed below are immediate resources for those who have been impacted by the Los Angeles area fires:

Financial Aid

  • Submit an Appeal: To request any adjustments to your aid, please complete the Special Circumstances form available on FAST. Please note that documentation may be required, and adjustments may not take effect immediately. More information can be found on our Special Circumstances page.
  • Immediate Funds: If you need immediate financial assistance, consider using any remaining federal loan eligibility you may have. Information on how to apply for federal loans is available on our Loans page.
  • Cost of Attendance Appeal: If your transportation or living expenses have increased, submit a Cost of Attendance appeal through FAST. This can increase your loan eligibility.
