Emergency Assistance Fund

In 2016 MCNY launched an emergency fund to help students in good standing get the boost they need to get through whatever challenge has arisen in their life. From transportation to temporary housing to childcare assistance and everything in between, the Emergency Fund is being created to help make sure that current life circumstances don’t get in the way of a student’s future success.
