If your family (parent, spouse, student) has experienced a loss of income since you completed the FAFSA, complete and submit an Appeal for an Income Reduction. Independent or Dependent Student versions are available. Be sure to attach supporting documentation and complete the entire form. Loss of income may be the result of a loss employment, income benefits, death of a parent or spouse, divorce or separation. Send the completed appeal form and supporting documentation to the College Financial Aid Office.
