Service Overview:
Please use this form, along with required supporting documentation, to appeal the suspension of your financial aid eligibility resulting from your failure to meet WSSU’s minimum standards for Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP). Only valid appeals with documented extenuating circumstances will be considered and reviewed. A valid appeal includes this Appeal Form, Appeal Statement, Academic Success (if required), and all required documentation that supports the extenuating circumstances. All forms and documentation must be typewritten and submitted TOGETHER by the appropriate deadline date. Incomplete appeals (without supporting documentation) will not be reviewed and will be automatically denied. You will be notified in writing via email and in Banner Rams Online once an appeal decision has been made. A decision can take up to 3-4 weeks. An appeal decision may impose limitations upon your financial aid eligibility and/or future minimum academic standards. Please note that approval of your SAP Appeal does not guarantee reinstatement of your original financial aid award package. Also, submission of documentation/appeal does not guarantee reinstatement of financial aid. A copy of the Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy can be found on our website. The Academic Success Plan needs to be uploaded as well before submitting.
