Emergency Cash Grants

If you’re facing a financial emergency, we may be able to help. De Anza can provide limited cash grants for students who are facing hardship related to the disruption of campus operations due to the coronavirus (COVID-19), or who are struggling with an urgent expense that might interfere with attending school.

Minimum Eligibility Requirements

We recommend that you apply for financial aid by submitting the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) or California Dream Act Application (CADAA) 

  • If you haven’t already done so,  you'll need to submit your financial aid application before receiving emergency funds. It's free! Visit our Financial Aid website for more information about these forms.

To apply for an emergency cash grant, submit the online form below. If you have any questions, please contact Lisa Mandy, director of Financial Aid and Scholarships, at mandylisa@deanza.edu.
