Financial Aid Appeal Form
All appeals will be reviewed by the Financial Aid committee the first week of each month. Submissions are due by the last business day of the month to be reviewed in the next month's meeting. The decision of the committee is FINAL. Appeal status is not automatically approved. Students are only allowed to appeal ONCE during their time at Southern Union. An approved appeal is void after (3) consecutive semesters of non-enrollment. If approved - after three semesters of using an approved PLAN, if the student does not regain eligibility, they must continue pursuing their degree at their own expense. There is no option to appeal for an extension of the PLAN beyond three semesters. Questions can be directed to financialaid@suscc.edu.
