How do I submit a cost of attendance appeal?

There may be times when you end up having additional educational expenses and are looking for a way to make sure you have enough funds to cover them. A Cost of Attendance Appeal allows you to request an increase in the total amount of financial aid you can receive for the academic year, which normally results in allowing you to borrow additional student loans.

Examples of expenses that might be considered in a Cost of Attendance Appeal are living expenses, computers, uninsured medical expenses, transportation, child care, special books or supplies, and relocation expenses.

Contact the Financial Aid & Scholarships Office to discuss your specific needs and next steps.

Will financial aid cover a course I have already taken?

In some cases, you can use financial aid to pay for classes you repeat. There is no limit to how many times you can retake a course using financial aid, as long as you never received a passing grade, and provided you meet the satisfactory academic progress requirements. It is important to note that D grades are considered passing by the Department of Education.

If you take a class and receive a passing grade, you are only eligible to retake the course one additional time while receiving financial aid.
