Columbia GSAPP has established a $250,000 Emergency Fund to assist students with unexpected expenses related to COVID-19. The fund was created by the Dean’s Office with the generous support of donors and alumni, who contributed specifically to support the student community facing hardships during this time.

The GSAPP Emergency Fund is for GSAPP students enrolling in the Fall 2020 semester who have urgent COVID-19-related financial emergencies that cannot be addressed by any other sources. These taxable stipends may vary in amount and will not exceed a cumulative total of $1,000 per student. The deadline to apply for the first round of funding will be August 23, 2020 and the funds will be disbursed after the start of the Fall semester in September 2020.

While student loans may be used to mitigate educational expenses, they are, nevertheless, loans that must be repaid after graduation or after you cease to be enrolled half­time in a degree­-granting program. For this reason, we strongly urge you to be as prudent as possible when borrowing and to understand fully the terms and conditions of any loan that you may borrow.

Students interested in additional loan funding, such as the Graduate Plus Loan should consult the Student Financial Services’ Graduate Financial Aid website in order to obtain information about private loan eligibility, borrowing limits, interest rates, fees and disbursement.
