Fee waiver denied?

<p>Just went to apply for a fee waiver, and Ive been denied. My parents only made 47,000 last year and my brother and I are both in college right now. Why did I get denied, it must be a mistake?</p>

<p>You can try contacting each campus directly.</p>

<p>On the UC website it says:</p>

<p>"If a student is denied a fee waiver on the application but is eligible for a College Board fee waiver, what should he do?</p>

<p>If the student has applied and is denied the fee waiver, he should indicate that he wants to pay by check. When he receives a bill from the application processing service, he should send the College Board fee waiver to the address provided."</p>

<p>I’m not sure if that is for transfer applicants or only freshmen.</p>

<p>Here is a post from that thread:</p>

<p>"What options do I have if I’m denied an application fee waiver or if I prefer to use a printed authorization?
If you feel you have been incorrectly denied a fee waiver through the online application or prefer to use a printed fee waiver authorization, there are several other methods you can use to apply for a waiver. You must meet the same income and family size guidelines regardless of the method you use. Return your fee waiver authorization or request with the bill for fee(s) you receive from the University.

High School Students: Use the College Board fee waiver. It is available from your school counselor.

EOPS Community College Students: If you are enrolled in Extended Opportunity Programs and Services (EOPS) at a California community college, obtain a fee waiver authorization from the EOPS office.

Other Applicants: Qualified students may obtain a UC fee waiver authorization at a UC campus Admissions and Relations with Schools or EOP office. When requesting a fee waiver authorization, be prepared to answer questions about your gross family income and family size. If you are unable to obtain a UC fee waiver authorization due to time constraints, attach a letter to your billing statement requesting consideration for an application fee waiver, stating your gross family income and the number of family members supported by that income.
