Financial Aid Appeal

<p>I'm an admitted student and my financial aid package changed pretty substantially after sending in verifcation forms. I plan on appealing because I do not think the "discrepancy" they spotted is very valid. Also, I plan on arguing that they notified me of the change on May 3rd...well after the deadlines for the other schools...</p>

<p>What is the process for an appeal? Do I simply send an email to the Office of Financial Aid?</p>

<p>You want the contribution appeal form, either for students or (more likely) parents.</p>
