Canvas access has been restored for our users, but the service reliability remains uncertain. Due to recent events, Canvas has had intermittent outages which are at the discretion of the vendor and may occur during a final exam. Faculty and staff may continue to use Canvas, but we strongly advise faculty and students to prepare a contingency plan for turning in assignments and final exams in the event Canvas access becomes unavailable again.
Instructure, the company that owns Canvas, has provided an FAQ about the incident, which may not answer all your questions. We will share more information if it becomes available.
With all of the financial aid opportunities available, it can be hard to determine which options are best for you. In addition to typical aid and scholarships, you may be eligible to receive more benefits specific to your unique circumstances. We've compiled a list below of special categories for you to explore, as well as a few requirements you'll need to meet in order to remain eligible for aid.
ASSET/DACA
Advancing Students for a Stronger Tomorrow (ASSET) & Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA).
Financial Aid is awarded assuming you attend school for the entire period for which the aid is awarded. It's important to know how your aid will be affected if you withdraw from courses.
To be eligible for financial aid, students must meet Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) Standards. It's important to ensure you are able to meet them.
