Thank You For Taking The Time Out At My Appeal

I am writing to you in the hopes to appeal the decision of my academic suspension. When I received the news of my suspension I was deeply saddened, but understood completely the circumstances under which the decision was made. My low GPA failed to meet the requirements of the University to remain an active student on campus, which as a result led to my temporary dismissal. In the beginning of my freshman year, I was very excited about coming to Howard University because I had fell in love with the school. Into my first year I took on 18 credit hours convinced that college would be similar to high school. My first semester felt extremely overwhelming, I thought that I could handle my classes, and I convinced myself that I did not need help but I had only proved by the end of that semester that I was wrong. I did not know how to study well, and I could rely on my “smarts” to get me through classes that were rigorous. I enrolled myself without counseling into Spanish 2, calculus 1, and Freshman composition and I struggled the entire way, my pride just would not let me admitted that I needed help. So I lied to myself, I told myself that it would get better or maybe just go away. It did not and after failing my final exams I would be faced with the damage I had done to my, academic career.

I’m writing to you, in hopes to appeal my academic dismissal of the nursing program at Adelphi University. I am aware that my grades are lower than required, and I take full responsibility for being on academic probation. I was surprised when I got the news that I have been dismissed from the nursing program because I did not receive any form of notification of dismissal from the University earlier. I was informed by my guidance counselor prior to the start of spring semester that I would say in the program as long as I did not obtain a lower GPA than I had. As a result of my GPA increasing I was surprised to receive the news of my dismissal. Despite this I believe that I did not handle my situation correctly and should have maintained sufficient grades to avoid academic probation. As stated before I recognize and

I ask desperately that you please hear me out. All I could think of as the Student Conduct Committee, wrote my letter of failure,. Yes, letter of failure not acceptance. In reality, I am projected to be a statistic that could never graduate from a four-year accredited College or University. Eventually leading the next generation of my family into poverty and a lack of education along with myself. After four years at the University of Florida I had two options, accept the possible sanction of expulsion which will be made official in a couple weeks after you, Jen Day Shaw, the Associate Vice-President & Dean of Students finalizes and stamps it. Or, I could fight for myself being

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.

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.

Student Loans: What They Are, What The Evolution of Student Loans Has Looked Like, and What The Current Policy Is.

With this letter to you, I urge you to please hear me out and help me. I do not have the money to attend UCONN because of my family’s financial situation. The aid I received was a blessing and gave me the opportunity to follow my dreams and make my parents proud. It was the main driving factor for me going to UCONN as I pay for school myself. I had worked all summer and had planned to take whatever the difference was once financial aid was factored in and pay for it with my hard earned money, but now I will not be able to do that because of a miscommunication with my father and my mental illness. If I am granted financial aid, I will do whatever it takes to overcome

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 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.

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.

With many students with stories too similar to Sarah’s we need to focus on how we, college students and citizens of America, can help each other. Many people feel that we need to help college students with loans others believe that that need to handle their own loans.

The fact that I lost all my financial aid until I did the SAP appeal in 2014 but not this time in 2016, and the fact that I owe $4k for the spring semester this time in 2016 but not in 2014. It is a similar situation for both semesters. Therefore, it should be taken care of the same way, at least one would think. It is unfortunate that the U.S. Department of Education was unhelpful, and the only service that was helpful with information, cannot do anything about it.

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

In closing, I do appreciate the time taken to review my case. I am opptumistic that a positive result can be reached for these loans, with the hopes of being refunded the money which was applied for these loans from my tax return so that I can use them for my two children and family matters, with hopes of being discharged with the possiblitiy of attending an accredited institution to obtain a worthy

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
