Gavilan Foundation Emergency Scholarship
The emergency scholarship was established to provide assistance to Gavilan College students who are experiencing unforeseen emergency needs such as food, books, transportation expenses, etc. The scholarship is funded by generous donations to the Gavilan College Educational Foundation.
Students enrolled in a minimum of 6 units for Summer 2022 experiencing an unforeseen emergency may apply for a one-time emergency scholarship for up to $200. Due to limited funding, emergency grants will be distributed to students based on self-certified financial need on a first-come, first-served basis and until funds have been exhausted.
