In certain circumstances, a student’s financial aid eligibility can be reviewed for a possible recalculation when the
information that was initially used to determine eligibility is no longer relevant. Please check the circumstance that
applies to you and provide any additional information that is requested. Return this form and any required
documentation to our office.
Requests for special consideration, such as this Special Condition Form, will be reviewed in the order they are
received, and after all initial file reviews have been completed. Our first priority is to ensure that ALL students have
received an initial award prior to reviewing requests for special consideration. Therefore, you may experience a
significant delay from the time you submit your appeal form until your request is reviewed.

Divorce/separation (attach copy of divorce or legal separation papers)
