Tarleton State University is reminding students impacted by COVID-19 that grant money is available for them.

New mom Destiny Bibbs, attends Tarleton State University and says her loss of income made continuing school very difficult. That is, until a professor made her aware of available grant money through the Higher Education Emergency Relief Fund.

"It’s honestly helped me take more courses that I couldn’t afford before," Bibbs said. "What I’ve been doing the last two semesters, if I have any balances through Tarleton, I’ll let them use whatever I get through the program for those balances and I get what’s left over and I’ll use those for books, you know gas, anything I need, for bills."
