Tips for Getting Financial Aid
There are many things you can do to increase your chances of getting financial aid. Here are some tips:
- Apply for financial aid early. The earlier you apply, the more likely you are to receive financial aid.
- Complete the FAFSA accurately and completely. The FAFSA is used to determine your financial need and your eligibility for financial aid. Errors or omissions on the FAFSA could reduce your chances of getting financial aid.
- Follow up with the financial aid office. If you have any questions about your financial aid application, contact the financial aid office.
How to Appeal a Financial Aid Decision
If you are not satisfied with the amount of financial aid you received, you can appeal the decision. To appeal a financial aid decision, you must write a letter to the financial aid office.
In your letter, you should explain why you believe the financial aid decision was unfair. You should also provide any documentation that supports your claim.
