“As we approach the end of the semester and year, I hope this email finds you well.

You may have read that the U.S. Congress, in its most recent coronavirus relief legislation, has provided additional funding to help students who have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. To make these Higher Education Emergency Relief Fund (HEERF) dollars available directly to Purdue im体育 Fort Wayne students, we have established a short application that can be completed in just a few minutes.

Additionally, if you have an outstanding balance on your university account, you may also choose to request that all, or a portion, of it be paid directly from the HEERF funds.

Please see the application for additional details. We will make every effort to assist you in getting reimbursed for expenses, if they are allowable under guidance from the U.S. Department of Education’s Office of Federal Student Aid and if sufficient funds are available.

To be eligible, you must have a 2020–21 FAFSA on file with Purdue Fort Wayne’s Office of Financial Aid or be eligible to file a FAFSA. If you have not filed a FAFSA, more detailed eligibility information is outlined at the beginning of the application. Additionally, this email is being sent to eligible students only.
