Student Emergency Funding Request
We’re here to help.
Montgomery College understands that unexpected challenges can create barriers to your success. If you are experiencing an emergency that may keep you from completing your semester, the Montgomery College Foundation offers one-time support to help you stay on track.
About the Program
- Emergency assistance is awarded on a case-by-case basis and depends on available funding.
- This program is not a scholarship or financial aid—it is designed to provide immediate relief in times of exceptional need.
- Because funding is limited and comes from the generosity of our donors, priority is given to students who are close to completing their degree or certificate.
- Per our policy, we cannot pay for past due balances owed to the College.
Eligibility
- You must be registered for the current semester to request assistance. If you are registered for an upcoming semester, you may apply once that semester begins.
- All requests must include a statement of support from an advocate—a faculty member, counselor, academic advisor, department chair, dean, or campus provost. (Please note: staff from the MC Foundation, financial aid office, or scholarships office cannot serve as advocates. Self-advocacy is not allowed.)
