Dear Students,
As part of recently passed federal legislation known as the HEERF, which is part of the ARP, Albert Einstein College of Medicine has received approximately $500,000 in grant funding for distribution directly to eligible students, especially those with exceptional need. This funding will help offset expenses related to the disruptions caused by the ongoing pandemic, such as tuition, food, housing, health care, or child care. The Department of Education determined Einstein’s allocation based on student enrollment. All students enrolled as of 7/1/2021 will receive a one-time grant. Students with prior Pell grant eligibility will receive $700, and all other students will receive $450.
