Some NAU Students To Receive CARES Act Money From The Federal Government

Some NAU students could be seeing a few extra dollars coming into their bank accounts soon. The school sent an email to all full-time students Tuesday detailing their eligibility for CARES Act money. NAU has recently been approved by the U.S. Department of Education to receive nearly $12-million dollars from the Act. Students who are eligible for Federal Pell Grant money will receive $500-dollars, whereas all other full time NAU students will get $400-dollars. Students who complete the brief form attached to the email by July 6th are eligible to receive CARES Act funds in the form of a direct deposit, or mailed check within seven-to-ten days.
