Financial assistance for enrolled FLC students facing unexpected expenses

Fort Lewis College is committed to helping students persist through unexpected financial challenges. The Skyhawk Emergency Grant provides one-time funding, made possible through FLC Foundation donors, to help currently enrolled students cover costs that arise outside of normal educational expenses.

Please note: your college bill is not an unexpected expense and does not qualify for this grant.

What emergency expenses qualify

Emergency expenses can look different for every student. An unexpected medical bill, a car repair that keeps you from getting to campus, a sudden loss of housing, or another unforeseen cost that makes it hard to focus on your education are all examples of what this grant is designed to help with. If you're facing something unexpected that's standing between you and your academics, this grant may be able to help.

Eligibility

To be considered, you must:

  • Be currently enrolled at Fort Lewis College
  • Have utilized all available funding sources before applying

Grant requests are reviewed based on your financial, academic, and disciplinary records, as well as your course load and degree-seeking status.

How to apply

Applications open at the beginning of the Fall and Spring semesters. Apply through the FLC scholarship portal using your FLC account.
