<p>If I need more financial aid, do you think asking for it in a letter will help?</p>
<p>Two people in my family will be attending college this fall, so we really need to the help.</p>
<p>Has anyone tried this? Do you use snail mail?</p>
<p>Any help will be appreciated.</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
<p>there’s a specific FA appeal form you need to fill out. It’s online. And they need your tax return or bills or some other concret evidence besides just a letter. If you can prove that your financial situation has worsened, then I think they’ll give you more aid</p>
<p>I sent in the appeal form a couple days ago and am still waiting for a reply. Here it is if you can’t find it:</p>
