KTC Coronavirus Resources

Hello!

First and foremost, we hope this message finds you in good health and good spirits, given the current public health crisis. We understand that every one is experiencing this situation a little differently depending on your campus protocols and situations. If you need any support navigating what to do, please reach out to your advisor ASAP. Below is a roundup of resources that can be helpful:

Financial:

KTC has emergency funds available for students with immediate needs (ex. flight ticket or other transportation; food expenses; school expenses). In some cases, we can provide the funding immediately and in other cases, it can take up to two weeks. Please reach out to your advisor ASAP so that we can process your request immediately and provide the funding that you need. 

Additionally, some foundations and companies are offering funding for COVID-19 related expenses:

Scholly – $200 cash assistance 

Undocuscholars – for undocumented students and families

Academic:

For many students, it can be an adjustment to take online courses. Here is an article with tips and recommendations for succeeding in your online courses. Please continue to check your emails, Canvas, and other student portals for updates from your professors. 

Also, check out our previous blog post with time management tips as well as this tutorial on the Pomodoro method!

Socio-emotional:

It is natural to feel a surge of anxiety and stress. Whether you have experienced anxiety in the past or not, now is a perfect time to practice grounding and mindfulness.
