The FAR Committee (Financial, Academic, and Research) works to improve the financial health, academic support and research environment of graduate students.

Graduate students who find themselves short of funds while waiting for their TF/RA stipends or loan checks to arrive can sometimes obtain short term emergency funds from the Graduate School.

Go to the FAR committee's Money Matters page to find out how.
