Student Portion Report Postings

On April 9th, 2020, the U.S. Department of Education announced that institutions of higher education would be allocated funds from the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act to directly address student expenses “… related to the disruption of campus operations due to coronavirus (including eligible expenses under a student’s cost of attendance such as food, housing, course materials, technology, health care, and child care)”. Brazosport College (“BC” or “the College”) was included in the allocation. To access these funds, the College submitted a signed CARES ACT: Higher Education Emergency Relief Fund (HEERF) Certification and Agreement via Grants.gov.

This Certification and Agreement, signed by Brazosport College on April 13, 2020, requires the College to provide fifty percent (50%) of its formula grant funds for the sole and exclusive purpose to provide emergency financial aid grants to students, for expenses such as:

• Food
• Housing
• Course materials
• Technology
• Health care
• Child-care expenses

Certification and Agreement Date: April 13, 2020

Last Reporting Date: December 18, 2020

Last Reporting Period: All expenses through December 31, 2020

The previous Student Aid Portion reports (a 30 day, 45 day, or quarterly report) should report expenditures from the date of the institution’s (a)(1) Student Portion award through September 30, 2020

To be eligible to apply for Emergency Financial Aid assistance, students must meet all federal guidelines, including being eligible for Title IV financial aid. The Financial Aid Office has analyzed all student accounts to determine which students are eligible to apply for emergency assistance. The application assesses student need related to the disruption of campus operations due to coronavirus. From March 2020 through August 2020, an eligible student could receive up to $1,000 in assistance. Starting in September 2020, an eligible student could receive up to $1,500 in assistance.
