Financial Aid Reflection

I apologize for missing your call! When you applied, you didn’t provide your Social Security Number, which is needed for your financial aid information. In addition, we don’t have a record where you completed the FAFSA.

So, the counselor decided to make a federal call in which they said that there was a technical issue to their website for people who wants to re-enroll. The only solution they found was to re-create the username and password to accomplish the re-enrollment.

In light of being denied the Federal Pell Grant from applying for the FAFSA, I will now rely upon grants from scholarships I have been applying for. Along with my own money from future jobs and my family's contributions to my education. For the past year and still continuing, I have received money from my family in order to save up for college. Money that I received during daily responsibilities around the house. No matter the quantity, due to the fact that I am unemployed. For the reason that I have been entirely focusing on my high school education since I am still in High School and in the ACE Program. Nevertheless, I plan to obtain a job in the near future to aid my education in Chandler-Gilbert Community College. Whether that job is in

My scholarship can be seen through my grades at Wahconah. My grade point average has not dropped below a ninety-six in my freshman nor my sophomore year. I plan to keep this up heading into my junior year. With having these grades, I know that in the winter of my sophomore year, I was eleventh in my class. I know this because I had to send my transcript to a private school who was interested in me for lacrosse, and gained very much interest seeing my grades. I have kept my grades up while also maintaining a job at Kelly’s Package Store and playing lacrosse all year round. Therefore, my I excel academically at Wahconah and plan to do no different in the future.

At the cost of $30,000, I also have two other children in college. My son is in Broward College, major undecided, and my daughter in Columbia University, dental program. Additionally, I have a teen in high school, who will attend college in 2017. They receive some school financial assistance; however it does not cover all expenses they have. I am offered tuition reimbursement by Aetna; however it is at 80% and is on a semester basis. It is capped at $5,000/yr. I would greatly appreciate assistance from ACHE with this program expense. I am a single parent with, no additional financial assistance. A student loan is my only avenue to financial assistance. I am working hard to show my children education is a primary factor to your success and becoming a productive citizen.

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

I made some mistakes when filling out the FAFSA form, I have taken the necessary steps to correct it, but FAFSA has already sent you the incorrect version. I apologize for the inconvenience, I am unfamiliar with the FAFSA process and made multiple mistakes, one of them was believing, that I, being nearly 21 would be considered independent. I believe basing the financial need of an adult on the savings of their parents to be an error on FAFSA’s part, especially when the parents are retired. My Father has worked a whole lifetime for his savings, and hopes to use his sizeable savings to support my mother and four younger siblings, the youngest of whom is 11yrs (1 Timothy 5:8). For the reasons stated above, my Father is unwilling to contribute

I just want to start off by saying that this is a difficult stepback for me to accept, due to my determination to be the best student that I can possibly be during my academic career. Therefore, when getting the notice that I was on Financial Aid Warning, I felt heartache of disappointment in myself for allowing this to happen near my senior year of attending this university. With that being said, I plan to really take the necessary actions for you all to understand that this is not normal behavior from me and that I will seek the necessary assistance to be successful.

The reason I’m unable to get my transcript from APU at this time is because of a balance due. One year before I could attend I had to go through the verification process. I filled out all the paperwork and sent my W2 and tax return. I thought everything was completed because I was allowed to enroll and choose my classes. During the year I even took out a small loan and it was deposit into my account meaning I didn’t have a balance. After the semester and summer break I went to pick my classes and wasn't able to because it said a balance was due. After emailing the financial aid office I was told I forgot to sign one of the form. I signed and fax the form back to them, a couple weeks later they emailed me telling me that the FAFSA financial

State legislators slashed more than $121 million from college financial aid programs alone. TEXAS grants, the state’s financial aid program for needy students, now serves 29,000 fewer students than it did previously. College administrators have reported losing highly qualified students to private or out-of-state

Patti Shannon and her husband started setting aside $200 per month when their youngest child was in kindergarten. They had thought, as many others probably would too, that they would be able to collect a significant amount over the next twelve years. Eventually, the Shannons had put together over $40,000 but all of what they had worked so hard to save up for was gone within their son’s first year at Texas Tech University, of whom was not even their youngest child. The Shannons are anticipating to disburse more than $200,000 to be able to put both of their children through college. Most likely there are many other families just like the Shannons who are going through the same trouble, and you and your family could very well be one of them. If you’re trying to give it all you’ve got but still don’t live up to what the tuition is expecting of you, then what is the point? Especially when the tuition doesn’t cease to increase each

I didn't have an idea of the financial aid requirements entailed till it was too late. Freshmen and sophomore year were a year of trials and tribulations. Completing approximately 12 out of 38 credits mostly due to the fact I was moving my schedule around to fit my schedule and losing multiple family members and getting diagnosed with ADHD and depression by the DRES department, I had so much to deal with that I found myself struggling. I wasn't able to redeem myself after I got my warning because even though I completed all that I registered for, I would still get my financial aid suspended. I have had to appeal ever since I got my warning because of extenuating circumstances such as deaths in the family and disabilities and other times because I had to because even though I complete every class I attempted for the previous semesters excluding fall 2015, I won't make the completion rate because I dropped so many classes freshmen year first semester.

I always feel like I say this, but WOW almost midpoint? This class seems to be flying right by. The more I think about it the more scared I am . I can honestly say I am scared of this portfolio project, because I am really not sure how to approach it. Do I just come up with fact and list them to my employer? How does one really propose a tuition reimbursement? How do I know I am researching the right thing? So many questions running through my head. Besides my fear of the portfolio project, I think I am keeping up and doing well with discussions, reading and homework.

In the summer of 2015, I was enrolled at The University of Phoenix to start the summer program. Due to my mother having a terrible car accident, I pushed back my enrollment date since the car accident left my mother unable to walk. Not only that, I was left with the responsibility and care of my two younger siblings who have cerebral palsy. I called and talked with admissions and they pushed back the date for me to start school, after a couple of weeks passed I received a call from the school telling me I would loose my funding for school and it was important that I started on the next starting date. The following start date arrived and I started school every week I received a call from a adviser if I didn’t sign on to

Good Morning Ian, the Fiscal year has ended, can you tell me when I will get my refund. I spoke to someone at the Federal Student Aid they state the funds were released. I'm a little frustrated because my first course I had to get an "F" because I was waiting on refund to purchase my book...I know that's not your concern.
