Michigan College of Beauty “MCB” signed and returned to the U.S. Department of Education the Certification and Agreement and the assurance that the institution will use no less than 50 % of the funds under Section 18004(a)(1)of the Cares Act to provide Emergency Financial Aid Grants to students.

MCB has been allocated $348,470.00 to total Grants. MCB received $174,225.00 in Cares Act Grants to be distributed to qualifying students, listed on the schools’ attendance rolls as of the day the school closed due to Covid -19.

It was determined that there were 198 students who qualified for a portion of the $174,225.00 in Cares Act Grants. We divided 198 into $174,225.00 and issued 198 checks for $879.93 each. Since issuing the original 198 checks, MCB has issued an additional 2 checks of $879.93 to students for a total of 200 checks totaling $175,986 is Cares Act grants to students.
