ASU Students will begin to receive from $500 to $6,000 of the $32 million received from federal government as direct student aid; Yavapai began distribution to its students as soon as they became available
Arizona State University announced Friday, July 10 that it will begin to award from $500 to $6,000 of the $32 million it received from the government as direct aid to students. The funds came from the CARES Act.
ASU’s announcement comes nearly two months after the state’s other large universities began CARES Act fund distribution. All had paid out some of the CARES Act funding to their spring semester students.
Yavapai Community College began distributing funds under the CARES Act to assist students as soon as the funds became available in the spring. (See Blog posting of May 14.)
