[Eoscstudents] Emergency Broadband Benefit Program through FCC

[Mimi Kelley]

Students:

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has recently announced a
program that can help students with internet access and cost due to the
pandemic.  For a household struggling to pay for internet, this new program
allows for a household to potentially be eligible if a member of the
household received a Pell Grant during the current award year.  This is one
among other eligibility requirements. Verification of receiving a Pell
Grant must be provided during the application process.

Under the Emergency Broadband Benefit Program, households found to be
eligible can receive up to $50.00 per month to help pay for broadband
internet service.

For any students interested in finding out more about this broadband
internet service, please follow this link to review the process and your
potential eligibility:
