What Is an SAP Appeal for Financial Aid?

A SAP appeal is a formal request asking the Financial Aid Office to reconsider your eligibility for aid.

A complete SAP appeal must:

• Describe the serious circumstances you faced 
• Explain when the circumstances occurred 
• Include third-party documentation 
• Show that the circumstances are resolved or being effectively managed 
• Explain how your circumstances have changed so you can succeed academically moving forward 

An appeal cannot be approved for the same reason or circumstances more than once.
