SAP Appeal Forms
Availability and Deadlines
Students with a Financial Aid Disqualification status on Campus Connection must adhere to the following dates when submitting an appeal to request reinstatement of financial aid eligibility:
- 2025 Fall Semester: Deadline was September 19, 2025
- 2026 Spring Semester: May submit appeals between December 15, 2025 and February 6, 2026
IMPORTANT: You cannot submit an appeal to reinstate aid for a semester of disqualification that has already ended.
Students with an INFO status on Campus Connection are nearing the maximum attempted credit limit but are not yet on Financial Aid Disqualification. Those students may submit a Maximum Attempted Credits/Time Frame Appeal Form any time up to the last two weeks of the semester. An appeal for INFO status does not need to be submitted for students who will graduate within one semester.
Students appealing for more than one reason, for example, exceeding the maximum attempted credits/time frame AND another disqualifying factor like GPA or 67% successful completion of credits, must submit BOTH appeal forms.
Financial Aid Disqualification Appeal Form
Submit this appeal form if you have been disqualified from financial aid for:
- Cumulative Grade Point Average (GPA) less than 2.0 (or 3.0 for graduate students)
- Successful completion of attempted credits less than 67%
