“Information about Financial Aid Appeals”will explain Financial Aid requirements and
how to “appeal” if your aid is suspended:“Financial aid regulations require that a student must make satisfactory academic progress (SAP) to remain eligible for financial aid. The minimum requirements for all types of financial aid include three standard measures-the cumulative GPA, the number of credits earned each semester, and the pace of degree completion.
A student who has had his/her financial aid suspended may file an appeal for the reinstatement of aid when extenuating circumstances exist. A student wanting to file an appeal for the reinstatement of financial aid will need to meet with his/her academic advisor for a degree audit and academic success plan (if applicable).
. . . The student should complete the appeal form and review the checklist of required documents prior to meeting with his/her academic advisor.”
