SPH Student Emergency Fund

What is the SPH Emergency Fund?

The OHSU-PSU School of Public Health emergency funds support students who experience sudden and unexpected financial emergency that will pause or postpone their educational pursuits.

Emergency Fund Details

These funds cannot be used to cover tuition and fees. Emergency funds are for OHSU-PSU School of Public Health students. All currently-enrolled students are eligible to apply for these funds. Student financial aid (allowance, receipt of federal aid, and other reasons) can affect the amount of funding received. Eligible students can receive emergency funds one each academic year.
