Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act (CRRSAA)

PPCC plans to award $1,000 emergency grants automatically (no application necessary) to students with Pell Grants this Spring semester, as well as provide emergency grants to financial aid applicants who do not qualify for Pell but still have “need”.

CRRSAA allows colleges to provide emergency grants to students to help cover any element of students’ cost of attendance (such as housing, food, childcare, etc.).
With students’ permission the CRRSAA funds can also be applied to their existing school balance (i.e. tuition, fees, etc.).
CRRSA directs colleges to prioritize the awarding of grants to students with exceptional need, such as students with Pell Grants.

BankMobile is PPCC's Refund Method

Financial aid, i.e. grants, scholarships, and loans, pays towards the balance due to PPCC first on the Monday after the main census/drop date. If that Monday is a holiday, it will pay on Tuesday.You will receive a ﬁnancial aid refund if there is any money left over after all charges have been covered. You will receive a mailer from BankMobile explaining how to choose your refund preference OR you can visit BankMobileVibe.com.

Refunds will be generated by the Student Accounts oﬃce each Monday. Funds could be available to the student the following Friday depending on which refund preference is selected.
