The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act
TBC is concerned with student academic success and student personal success. We came to understand the severity of hardships some students experienced when our campus closed in March 2020 because of the COVID-19 public health emergency. The Administration became aware of federal funding available to help students affected by the on-campus to online education transition. College staff worked many hours to obtain grant funding for students, and we successfully secured funding for students directly affected by the disruption of campus operations. TBC first made relief funding available to students affected financially by the education transition in the following areas:
- Emergency/crisis Housing
- Emergency/crisis Food
- Emergency/crisis Technology
- Emergency/crisis Course Materials
- Emergency/crisis Health Care
- Emergency/crisis Childcare Expenses
FAQ
Per U.S. Department of Education guidance, international, dual-enrollment, non-U.S. citizens and students with an online-only enrollment status prior to March 13, 2020 are not eligible for CARES Act relief funding. A student enrolled at the Jacksonville campus as of March 13, 2020, who experienced a financial impact in the categories listed above, from March 13, 2020 through May 7, 2020, may apply for relief.
