Special Circumstances Consideration

We recognize that the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) may not always provide a clear picture of your current financial situation.  If your financial circumstances have changed since you submitted the FAFSA, you may request a reevaluation of your financial aid eligibility.

Circumstances that will be considered include the following:

• Loss of employment
• Other loss of income or benefits
• Separation or divorce
• Death of a parent or spouse
• High medical and/or dental expenses that will not be reimbursed

To initiate the special circumstances process, please see the Special Circumstances Appeal Checklist.  This will outline the necessary items that need to be submitted for each particular circumstance.  All forms for the Special Circumstance Appeal can be found here.
