In order to appeal your financial aid suspension, complete all information on attached form and return this form along with any supporting documentation and your advisor’s approval.  Appeals must be submitted by the end of the third day of class for the appealed semester.  All institutional charges from prior semester must be paid in full before appeals will be considered. The Financial Aid Committee will review your appeal based on the Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy found at: (https://onestop.vcsu.edu/support/solutions/articles/10000034255-undergraduate-satisfactory-progress-policy).  

Submitting an appeal does not guarantee approval to reinstate eligibility to receive federal financial aid.  The committee will make a final decision, either approving or denying your appeal.  You will be informed of their decision by letter and email to your VCSU email account.  If the appeal is not successful, students may consider an alternative/private loan to fund their cost of education until they meet the minimum SAP standards.  Students are responsible for paying university charges incurred and will not be eligible for federal financial aid unless this appeal is approved.
