Dear Students:
Happy New Year. We hope you had a restful break.
Hopefully you received the emails from Dean Becker about the emergency aid funding that the School of the Arts received from the CARES Act, and the equivalent amount that the School is making available for international students. We are in the process of evaluating the emergency aid applications that many of you submitted last month. Since we were unaware of these new sources of funding prior to that application deadline, we are going to reopen the application for one week to give those that didn't initially apply the opportunity to do so. The deadline is Sunday, January 10, 2021 at 11:59 PM and cannot be extended.
Thank you for your patience as it will take us a few weeks to process the applications. We will be in touch with award amounts as soon as possible.
Best,
Julie Dobrow
Dean of Admissions and Financial Aid Columbia University School of the Arts
