can you appeal financial aid award?

<p>My dad will no longer recieve diasability benefits for this coming year, resulting in an income decrease of $20,000. All my aid was based on his salary last year, so it is an extreme harship to afford certain schools based on their aid.</p>

<p>For FAFSA - Absolutely (assuming you mean this year - 2008 - rather than next year). Loss of benefits is one of the accepted reasons for asking for an adjustment to be considered. You will need to provide documentation showing that the benefit is going away.</p>
