Toys For Tots Campaign

 

While we’re still in the spooky season it’s never too early to start thinking about the holiday season, and those in need.

Once again we’ve partnered with the US Marine Corp and their Toys for Tots program.  Collection bins are located in various places throughout the hospital as well as in other buildings include the outpatient pavilion.   If you can, please drop off a new unwrapped toy and nothing plush or stuffed.

Institutional Aid Application

The UCH Institutional Aid Application for 2026-2027 is now available.  An e-mail was sent earlier today, 10/1/25 with details and a link to the application.  Please refer back to that e-mail to complete the application as the link will not be posted here or on our Facebook group page.

Remember that institutional aid is offered on a first-come-first-serve basis.  Your spot in line is determined based on when your entire aid application is complete.  This is when your 2026-2027 FAFSA is submitted, your UCH Institutional Aid Application is submitted as well as ALL required wage and tax documentation.

If you have any questions please let us know.

It’s FAFSA time!

Well it’s a week early, but better than a week late. The 2026-2027 FAFSA is now available at studentaid.gov

If you are seeking any kind of aid please make sure to complete one ASAP. Remember institutional aid is offered first-come, first serve and getting your FAFSA submitted is a critical step.

  1. Complete a 2026-2027 FAFSA
  2. Complete the 2026-2027 Institutional Aid Application

After all these steps have been completed your spot in line is guaranteed.
