CERTIFICATION
I understand that I will be placed on Financial Aid Probation if my appeal is approved for the semester I
am seeking financial aid reinstatement for. The following semester’s funds will not be released to me until
all grades for the probation semester have been recorded and reviewed. This typically happens during the
third week of the semester. I understand that I may not be eligible to receive any further funding until then
and must plan accordingly.
