Included in the federal coronavirus relief package passed in December is more than $22 billion for higher education. For Tarleton State University, that means extra help for students financially impacted by COVID-19 and assistance with institutional expenses incurred because of the pandemic.
The new relief package the Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations (CRRSA) Act is part of the larger Consolidated Appropriations Act 2021. Individual university allocations will be announced later.
“Tarleton students are resilient and focused on completing their education despite these unprecedented times and the challenges of the pandemic,” said Tarleton Chief Financial Officer Lori Beaty. “CRRSA funds will help ensure that those impacted by COVID-19 receive essential and timely assistance.”
