South CARES

We know this is a stressful time and we want to help. South CARES is USA's Collaborative Access, Resources, and Emergency Support program. The online portal allows you to connect with us by submitting a request for contact. Give us a little information about your immediate need and we will contact you to walk through solutions. Virtual meetings are currently being scheduled, throughout the week, with our student aid advocates. This form can be completed on a computer, or mobile device. If you do not have access to either you can call the One Stop office and leave a voicemail and we will return the call as soon as possible.
