Financial Aid Sap Appeal

I'm filing this appeal due to my financial aid being discontinued because I failed to meet the SAP requirements during the fall semester 2015. Fall semester 2015 was my second semester attending WKU. I strongly believe l that me dealing with depression and anxiety prevented me from meeting the Satisfactory Academic Progress that was required. Without financial aid I will not be able to attend WKU because my income will not allow me to pay for courses out of pocket.

The initial shock of the significant workload and expectations can take their toll, but good time management skills can prevent multiple late nights in a row to get assignments done on time. Kelci Lynn Lucier has worked in higher education for ten years, and has experienced students struggle to try and find the balance between extracurricular activities, personal activities, and education priorities. Luckily, Lucier has four tips to help best use the time provided in a day. Lucier’s first step focuses on managing ones academic time and how it needs to be the top priority above all other curricular activities, stating: “It's important to remind yourself why you're in college in the first place: to graduate” (Lucier). Lucier’s second step is be able to manage personal time, she talks about how unrealistic it is to always be working, studying, or learning, she wants students to try and find time to do something fun with friends or a club. Lucier’s third step is to wkeep the students health in mind, it does no good to stay up until two in the morning studying over a history mid-term, only to be half asleep for the test anyway; sleep is important and without can only increase the stress. Lucier’s fourth and final step is to not be afraid to seek help with your time management, she states: “The most important thing to have for time

I’m writing to you, in hopes to appeal my academic dismissal of the nursing program at Adelphi University. I am aware that my grades are lower than required, and I take full responsibility for being on academic probation. I was surprised when I got the news that I have been dismissed from the nursing program because I did not receive any form of notification of dismissal from the University earlier. I was informed by my guidance counselor prior to the start of spring semester that I would say in the program as long as I did not obtain a lower GPA than I had. As a result of my GPA increasing I was surprised to receive the news of my dismissal. Despite this I believe that I did not handle my situation correctly and should have maintained sufficient grades to avoid academic probation. As stated before I recognize and

I am writing to appeal my academic dismissal from NOVA Southeastern University. I was not surprised, but very upset to receive a notice of my dismissal. I sat out for a year and would like to be accepted for the upcoming semester. I admit, I had a very difficult time during my last semester and as a result my grades suffered. I don't mean to make excuses for my poor academic performance and I understand it’s my fault, but I would like to explain the circumstances as well as my great interest in the program.

I am writing to appeal my academic probation at Pierce College Puyallup to further my education. Although i am not surprised i am on the dismissal list since i recognize that my grades fell behind and stayed behind during my 3 first quarters at the campus. Although my grades were low i would like to humbly urge you to reinstate me for further quarters.

I am writing to request an appeal of my current dismissal status at Argosy University. I am enrolled in the Associate of Arts in Psychology degree program and I have failed the course English 101- Composition 1, due to a substance abuse problem that I have addressed by joining a program. Up until my first attempt with English 101- Composition 1, my grade point average was a 4.0. I was proud of myself being that it was my first time to ever make it on the President's List. I had so much satisfaction because not only I am doing something that I loved and enjoyed, but over the first few courses, I was able to recognize the knowledge that I have gained and use it in real life situations.

I just want to start off by saying that this is a difficult stepback for me to accept, due to my determination to be the best student that I can possibly be during my academic career. Therefore, when getting the notice that I was on Financial Aid Warning, I felt heartache of disappointment in myself for allowing this to happen near my senior year of attending this university. With that being said, I plan to really take the necessary actions for you all to understand that this is not normal behavior from me and that I will seek the necessary assistance to be successful.

From writing this appeal I plea for a readmission for the upcoming 2016 spring semester to the University of Houston Downtown. The report of my suspension for a low GPA from this college has bought my total attention to understand that my education is not joke. I know it was because I saw my education as need than a want in my life. I know that I was immature from my past college experience furthermore, I was not able to obtain my education in a proper manner. This reality call for lacking on my GPA has opened my eyes to see I am nothing without knowledge. Moreover, I have embrace my failure by seeing that I did not grasp the opportunity in front of me with the best of my being. Now, that this flaw in my part has been unsealed; I have acknowledge the true priorities for myself and my future. I

I am writing to you to appeal the Financial Aid Status I am currently placed under. Although you may not know me, if you look back at my grade history, this is not the student I am. I am a student who strives to work hard, and to do the ultimate best of my abilities. I usually beat myself up over homework and test grades. Throughout my career at Minot State University, my GPA never fell below a 3.70, I have been on the Dean’s/President’s Honor Roll since Fall of 2015. The only problem semester I have had previously was my first semester as a Freshman, and that was all about how I adjusted to college. After that first semester; I have only strived to reach my goals, and have worked tremendously

Where a regular student can afford to block off time days or weeks in advance for study or extracurricular activity I have found that flexibility is my strongest tool. There have been nights I have found myself studying for an impending test while pacing my kitchen with a crying baby in one arm and a text book in the other. Any reading assignment I can manage to listen to through audiobook is absolutely a God send, as I can complete it in the car or while packing lunches. I work two jobs on top of everything else. This semester has been my favorite in terms of schedule synchronicity. Everything is flowing in an orderly manner, I go straight from school to work taking time to study during my breaks.

I contemplated taking a semester off to have my child and reprioritize my life. However, after speaking my faculty mentor, I received the encouragement I needed to pushed forward and complete my degree. Sadly, I made the ultimate decision to postpone my journey to medical school to care for my family. After graduation, I decided to join the workforce to support my family. As a recent college graduate, I experienced difficulties obtaining employment and this was very discouraging, especially since I was caring for two young individuals. Eventually, I obtained a full-time position at a local community college and have been there for about six years educating minds to achieve their educational

lly understand the reasons for my suspension due to inefficient academic progress. During my time attending APSU, I had the burden of solely operating a small business. It was during the first quarter of 2011 when new contracts arose for the business, I experienced a dramatic increase in work. My priorities and responsibilities as a student eroded as my obligations for the business expended. My past attendance at APSU did not show my strengths as a student. I would like to ask for reconsideration for

It has been a difficult journey for my first year at Western to where I understood that I will lose my financial aid and my scholarship after spring term. In fall term I thought that I would start a new lifestyle where I can get away from my families issues. My family has been my priority with school since the outcome of my parent’s separation and the financial struggle that my father had to face. However, the issues my family had has followed me to school where it took me away from my school work. I have failed most of my classes fall term and I knew that I can’t afford another mistake. I made it a goal to make sure that I don’t make the same mistake that I did for fall term. I passed most of my classes except for math because of how I wouldn’t asked the professor for of

I am worried that my transcripts displayed weakness as a student because of my questionable GPA from freshman and sophomore year. Without making excuses for myself, I want to impress upon you the number of personal difficulties I faced during that time, including – but not limited to – several hospitalizations. After my sophomore year, I transferred

Although I respect the decision of my rejection to the university, I am presenting you with this appeal in hopes of your reconsideration of my application.
