Form 990, Part III, line 3Sierra Nevada College is a fully accredited institution of higher learning. During the fiscal year 2020, higher educational services were provided to approximately 1,000 students. During the fiscal year 2020, a national emergency was declared on March 13, 2020 related to the COVID-19 pandemic, and higher education institutions across the nation have been impacted by various challenges related to COVID-19. The College has been able to quickly adapt to the changes in order to keep our students, staff, faculty, and community safe and our institution financially sustainable. Some key changes included: Closing of the classrooms, dormitories, and dining halls after the emergency was declared, and not re-opening until October 2020, which included a pivot to online classes during this period; An immediate revision to the FY 2021 budget to reflect a reduction in revenue goals and adjusted expense structure due to an anticipated decline in enrollment and the dormitories/dining halls not being opened until October 2020; Obtaining a forgivable Paycheck Protection Program loan of $1.5 million to pay rent, utilities, and payroll for May and June 2020; and Obtaining Higher Education Emergency Relief Funds, which allowed the College to issue a one-time $1,200 COVID-19 grant for eligible on-ground, full-time undergraduate students to reduce their cost of attendance for the online portion of the Fall 2020 semester.
