The Beacon Student Aid Fund helps students that encounter a one-time unanticipated financial hardship that may impact their academic success at UMass Boston.

The Beacon Student Aid Fund is designated to off-set short-term financial needs, such as:

  • Emergency medical costs
  • Housing and living expenses
  • Family emergencies
  • Natural disasters
  • Loss of income
