Some families experience an unexpected change to their household income during the course of an academic year after the completion of their financial aid application. We allow appeals of a student's financial aid package based upon a review of submitted documentation and funding limits. Some common occurrences that can cause a change to household include:

• Loss of employment for 10 weeks or longer
• Reduction in salary or wages
• Medical expenses that are not covered by insurance
• Uninsured losses or funeral expenses
• Catastrophic property damage
• Recent change in marital status

Students or parents may appeal by submitting an Appeal Form for the appropriate academic year. Please allow 2-4 weeks for processing.
