2017-2018 Undergraduate Maximum Credit Hours of Eligibility (MCE) Appeal
You should only submit this form if you are an undergraduate student with a SAP Status of
"Max Credit Hours Reached" or "Nearing Max Credit Hours."
Federal regulations require the Office of Financial Aid to monitor the academic progress of all students toward the
completion of a degree. The regulations stipulate that a student’s eligibility for financial aid expires when the student’s
attempted credit hours have exceeded 150% of the credit hours required for their degree. Multiple changes in major
and/or excessive grades of F, I, N, or W are not adequate reasons for exceeding the Maximum Credit Hour
requirement. Appeals submitted for these reasons alone cannot be approved.
The Financial Aid Review Committee will review and respond to your appeal with either an approval or a denial.
These decisions are communicated in writing to your EMU email account. All appeal decisions are final.
Select the scenario that represents your situation and submit the requirements as specified below
(scenario 1) or on the second page (scenario 2).

Program
requires more than 30 credit hours.
