Financial Aid Academic Progress Appeal Process
Documents Required for Appeal
When you appeal your financial aid status to the Financial Aid Office, you must submit the documents listed below.
1. Financial Aid Academic Progress Appeal Form.
2. Personal Statement with Supporting Documentation.
Describe the reasons and circumstances surrounding your lack of sufficient academic progress. Describe the actions taken to
prevent future recurrence of the lack of satisfactory academic progress. Be specific and concise in your explanation since
incomplete information may cause a delay in the review of your appeal or a denial of your request.
• Focus on the particular academic terms and/or courses for which you registered but did not subsequently earn credits.
Supporting documentation will help to expedite the review process.
• Do not discuss your need for financial aid as part of your rationale for reinstatement of Title IV Federal Student Assistance
eligibility.
• If medical problems played a role in your lack of sufficient progress, attach any supporting evidence that you can provide from
your physician, on letterhead, that will more fully explain your particular situation. Highlight the relevant passages. The
Financial Aid appeals team will only review the highlighted passages.
• If appropriate, you may also provide a letter from a faculty member, advisor, clergy, or other informed individual who is
knowledgeable about your situation. Even if you attach letter(s) of support, you must still provide your own typed statement
explaining your unusual or mitigating circumstances.
3. Academic Improvement Plan.
Schedule an appointment with an academic advisor and bring the following documents to your appointment:
1) Financial Aid Academic Progress Appeal Form

Grade Point Average: less than 2.0
Pace: < 70% of all attempted hours, including developmental hours
• What are your plans for the upcoming semester?

Although you are currently on Financial Aid Suspension, it is possible to have your eligibility for Title IV Federal Student Assistance
reviewed if mitigating circumstances were responsible for this deficiency. The Financial Aid Appeals Team will review requests for

assistance, nor does it relieve individuals of future appeals.

2. Type a statement explaining why you did not meet the terms of LSCPA’s academic progress policy. All statements MUST
include the following:
a. An explanation and supporting documentation of the extenuating circumstances.

4. Complete the Financial Avenue module on “College and Money.” https://fa.financialavenue.org/fa-login/ Accessed through
the Financial Aid Homepage. Registration Access code: LamarPA
The extenuating circumstance that prevented me from making satisfactory academic progress is (check one):
Serious medical condition or injury
requiring extended recovery time.
Personal problems (family issues, housing
problems, etc.).
Death or serious illness of an immediate
family member (parent, child, sibling).
