2020-2021 UNUSUAL ENROLLMENT HISTORY APPEAL FORM
Based on the submission of your recent FAFSA, it has been determined that you have an unusual enrollment history while receiving Federal Student
Aid. An unusual enrollment history is defined as having attended multiple institutions in the past four aid/award years. If, upon review of your
academic records, it is determined that you did not earn academic credit at one or more of your previously attended institutions, you will need to
complete part C of this form. In this circumstance, our office is unable to award federal Title IV funding until the appeal is received documenting the
reason for your failure to earn academic credit.
If you wish to appeal, please complete this appeal form providing an explanation of your circumstances during the semester(s) in which you did not
earn credit. Attach any supporting documentation to this form.
