CARES Act Application for Additional Funding

The federal government’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic related to funding for colleges and college students is called the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act, and within it is the Higher Education Emergency Relief Fund.

Wisconsin Lutheran College applied for the emergency grant and has received limited funds to disburse to eligible students to help cover expenses related to the disruption of campus operations due to COVID-19.
Through funding by the CARES Act Higher Education Emergency Relief Fund, WLC has disbursed funds to qualified students via a check to their home address. Those should arrive at homes between May 12 and 18.
The College also has designated certain funds to be disbursed to students via an application process for those who did not receive initial funds or for those with additional need. Students who have received a check should indicate that below, but can apply for additional funds. These designated funds are to cover expenses related to the disruption of campus operations due to COVID-19 (including eligible expenses under your cost of attendance, such as food, housing, course materials, technology, health care, and child care). Please note, at this time the taxability of these funds is unknown.
