Financial Aid Award Package

The last semester was a very challenging semester for me emotionally, physically, and mentally. I had recently had a change in my relationship status and was left alone to pay all the bills. The full-time schedule made it difficult for me to pick up hours at work. Being a single mother of three children, this had devastating consequences on my family financially. By mid-semester I was forced to work third shift and weekends to try to compensate for the wages I was losing. This dramatically

My mother was diagnosed with a tumor in her abdomen. This took a tremendous toll on me over the course of the next year. I was regularly traveling from Dallas to San Antonio to be by her side and take her to appointments. Being an only child and my father working in Italy, I was her main support system. Family is everything to me. My mother is my everything. This sudden shift of my focus was reflected in my poor grades. I matured quickly during this time and learned to be successful with a rigorous academic course load. Most importantly, I learned to never give up when all hope seems

During my time at Union County College I have been faced with a lot of difficulties. I’ve struggled along the way but one thing I do believe is that I have the power to do better. My GPA has been affected by my personal mistakes. In my past semesters I have let my job take over my life rather than let school be most important. I have also let my personal family problems affect my work ethic. But through my fall 2014, it was most difficult because of March 2014 I lost my father through an unexpected heart attack. Throughout my fall semester I did struggle and cope with my father not being here anymore. I believed that I wasn’t focused enough because I used fall semester as a time to occupy myself rather that time out to deal with my father’s

I am writing to appeal my academic dismissal from NOVA Southeastern University. I was not surprised, but very upset to receive a notice of my dismissal. I sat out for a year and would like to be accepted for the upcoming semester. I admit, I had a very difficult time during my last semester and as a result my grades suffered. I don't mean to make excuses for my poor academic performance and I understand it’s my fault, but I would like to explain the circumstances as well as my great interest in the program.

Now for my appeal. There were a couple of factors that contributed to my late FAFSA application. I entrusted my father to help me through the process of completing FAFSA but due to complications with my mental health and household problems, I was unable to complete

30 NHL groups and 25 NBA groups." (Marc Edelman (Q)). This quote is contrasting how much a couple of beginner athletic groups made in one year versus proficient groups. This implies beginner groups with athletes that aren't paid made more than other expert groups with paid athletes. This is the universities being ravenous and not having any desire to surrender any cash. This is essential since novices should never approach what expert's make yet some have agreed them. This is particularly disturbing when the universities can bear to pay them.

During those semesters, I relapsed in my battle with depression. I was originally diagnosed at the age of nine but learned to manage the disease with the proper tools of guidance of professionals. The transition from college to the next step presented me with many new challenges that reignited my triggers. After having the disease in remission for so long, I had forgot how to handle my struggles on a day to day basis, so my academics took a hit. The process of learning to cope, build myself back up, and continue moving forward has been tough but has made more confident in who I am as a person, a student, and as a future

I am writing to you to appeal the Financial Aid Status I am currently placed under. Although you may not know me, if you look back at my grade history, this is not the student I am. I am a student who strives to work hard, and to do the ultimate best of my abilities. I usually beat myself up over homework and test grades. Throughout my career at Minot State University, my GPA never fell below a 3.70, I have been on the Dean’s/President’s Honor Roll since Fall of 2015. The only problem semester I have had previously was my first semester as a Freshman, and that was all about how I adjusted to college. After that first semester; I have only strived to reach my goals, and have worked tremendously

As I’ve already been accepted into your online program, it has been made aware to me that to complete my financial aid process I must provide for you legal documentation of my parents inability to provide any financial assistance for me. Like most students when I graduated high school I left home to pursue individuality and my own personal goals though me and my parents were in contact and though they were listed on my financial aid worksheet they divided no financial means for me. I transferred to another community college shortly after my first year of attendance at Navarro College, I had moved in with my estranged mother, not only did this volatile relationship put a heavy toll on me mentally but physically as well as I became sick quite

My name is Kristina D. Jones, I’m writing this letter in regards to my financial aid suspension as well coming back to my school. While attending Norfolk State University, my grades did progress, however I struggled in one class. My G.P.A was 1.9, if I would had actually pass the class, I would still be there. Nevertheless, I’m not the type of person to give excuses for my mistakes. I can only tell you what actually went on and what I have done to further my education. This is my second time applying back to Norfolk State University to gain my aid back. I been

I Jered Larkins 2262040 would like the opportunity to explain the extenuating circumstance that hindered my success in furthering my education. During the Spring Term 2013-2014 I was evicted from my place of residence. I have documents showing that I was a tenant at the time of the eviction. My uncle was the owner of the house and gave me permission to stay there so that I was able to attend school and find work to move into my own place of residence. Unfortunately my uncle fell behind on his mortgage and loan payments to the mortgage company that he received a loan from and I had to leave the premises. As for the Fall Term 2014-2015 my mother became ill and was admitted in the hospital for weeks at a time. My sister and I made sure that we

Thank you in advance for taking the time to review my letter of appeal the $5,080 financial aid Joseph Masri received for the upcoming school year. Though your offer was more than gracious, it is not sufficient for our financial needs. Included in this appeal is additional information that may not have been accounted for in the original application.

I'm filing this appeal due to my financial aid being discontinued because I failed to meet the SAP requirements during the fall semester 2015. Fall semester 2015 was my second semester attending WKU. I strongly believe l that me dealing with depression and anxiety prevented me from meeting the Satisfactory Academic Progress that was required. Without financial aid I will not be able to attend WKU because my income will not allow me to pay for courses out of pocket.

AU is my first choice school and I really want to attend AU. Unfortunately, I didn't get any financial aid aside from loans. This makes my decision much more difficult because my 2nd choice school gave me $16,500 a year for tuition, room and board; resulting in AU being significantly more expensive. My parents and I want to appeal for aid, but I am not sure how to do this. I am going on a gap year program next year and am not sure if it is appropriate to appeal now or next year. While my parents income is good now, my mom has experienced a recurrence of cancer which means she is working less, her income is decreasing and her medical expenses are increasing. Also, my dad was unemployed for 5 years which significantly decreased their savings
