Financial Aid Forms

Financial Aid Forms


APPEAL FORMS

The Federal Appeal form is for students who have lost their financial aid due to not making Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP). This means that a student did not pass enough credits during the academic year. The Appeal form is for Federal Aid ONLY and does not include the PA State Grant (PHEAA). The review for Satisfactory Academic Progress is done at the end of every spring semester.

Priority Deadline:

If you did not make Satisfactory Academic Progress after the 2021-2022 academic year and plan to appeal for the 2022-2023 academic year, the priority deadline to submit this form depends on the semester you begin enrollment for the 2022-2023 academic year.

  • Fall Semester Start: The priority deadline is Wednesday, July 6, 2022
  • Spring Semester Start: The priority deadline is Wednesday, December 21, 2022.
    • The final deadline to submit appeals is no later than the first day of the semester you are beginning enrollment. Appeals submitted after the start of the semester will not be accepted, and no exceptions made will be made.

Processing Timeline and Reminders:

  • Appeals are reviewed in the order they are received and students will be notified if they have been approved or denied aid for the 2022-2023 academic year.
  • If your appeal form and other documentation are not received by the priority deadline for your enrollment start, there is no guarantee that your appeal will be reviewed prior to the bill due date for the semester. You will be responsible for any balance due to the university and will need to arrange payment with the Office of Student Accounts (OSA).
