All requests to revise your award must include supporting documentation (copies of check stubs, medical expenses, etc., and/or thorough written explanation). Students who do not meet one of the above guidelines or students failing to provide proper documentation will have their requests denied. You must complete the Special Circumstance form. These forms are available by contacting a counselor in the Department of Student Financial Aid.
