Big Bend Community College students can apply to receive individual emergency relief grants, similar to Wenatchee Valley College students. Big Bend received federal funding from the CARES Act for enrolled students that are facing financial strain as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Students with limited emergency assistance are eligible for the grant funding, however the financial hardship must be related to COVID-19. Big Bend Community College has a different set of emergency funds for those students that may not qualify for the CARES Act funding. The application can be found here.
