Titans Feeding Titans will be open the week of 8/23 and 8/30 on Monday and Wednesday from 2:30-4:45. On Fridays from 11-4.

We will post our Fall Semester hours the week of Labor Day.

Follow us on Facebook for updates.

As of May 12, 2021, eligible households will be able to enroll in the program to receive a monthly discount off the cost of broadband service from an approved provider. Eligible households can enroll through an approved provider or by visiting https://getemergencybroadband.org.

Check out the Broadband Benefit Consumer FAQ for more information about the benefit and please continue to check this page for program updates.

Eligibility guidelines are here: https://getemergencybroadband.org/do-i-qualify/  If any member of the household received a Federal Pell Grant during the current award year, the household qualifies for the broadband benefit.

Pell Grant recipients are eligible for up to $50 per month or $75 per month in Tribal areas to pay for internet service.  Communication has been sent to student email listed on the FAFSA from the noreply@studentaid.gov with a subject line “Apply for the Emergency Broadband Benefit Program” for eligible students.

Here is the list of providers in Indiana: https://www.fcc.gov/emergency-broadband-benefit-providers#Indiana

Families of financial aid recipients who have experienced a significant loss of income during 2019 or 2020 may be able to have their eligibility for aid re-evaluated.

The Office of Financial Aid & Scholarships has an Unusual Circumstance Form (UCF) on our website that explains the process and required documentation.  Select the ‘Important Forms’ box at iusb.edu.finaid and review the form under the ‘Year Specific Forms’ section.

IMPORTANT: Families with an Expected Family Contribution (EFC) of zero are already eligible for the maximum amount of aid and would not be eligible to file the UCF.  The EFC is visible on the Student Aid Report (SAR) and in the email sent to you from FAFSA.

If you have not yet filed a FAFSA, for the 2020/2021 or 2021/2022 award year, we encourage you to do so.

A change in federal law has made more students temporarily eligible for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP).

Under regular SNAP rules, students enrolled at least half-time in an institution of higher education are ineligible for SNAP unless they meet one of the exemptions. However, the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021, temporarily expands SNAP eligibility to allow students who either:

1. Are eligible to participate in State or Federally financed work study during the regular academic year, as determined by the institution of higher education, or
2. Have an expected family contribution (EFC) of 0 in the current academic year.

Beginning January 16, 2021, students who meet one of the two criteria outlined above may receive SNAP if they meet all other financial and non-financial SNAP eligibility criteria. The new, temporary exemptions will be in effect until 30 days after the COVID-19 public health emergency is lifted
Students should contact their local SNAP offices to find out how to apply, or for other questions about their SNAP eligibility. State SNAP agencies administer the program, process applications, and determine eligibility.
