Student Assistance

Student Assistance Funds

Student assistance funds ensure students' well-being and academic success by providing financial support when unexpected, unforeseen, and unavoidable emergency expenses arise. Funds help with food insecurity, travel during a family crisis, safe housing, and more. 

Jeff Secure is a small grant designed to assist Thomas Jefferson University students facing unexpected financial hardships. Whether it's an urgent medical bill, housing issue, or another critical expense, this resource is here to provide timely help and alleviate stress.

The RAMily Market Pantry is committed to combating food insecurity within the Thomas Jefferson University community. We provide free access to nutritious, shelf-stable, and perishable items for students in need.

The Finish Line Fund ensures that small debts don’t stand in the way of a student’s ability to complete their hard-earned degree. It provides need-based bridge funding for students to register for their next semester or graduate.
