<p>My family recently had a significant decrease income within the last week as a result of one of my parents' employment termination. At this point in time will Duke even consider any form of a financial aid appeal seeing as it is already late May? I have already sent in my SIR so it is it even worth the time to begin an aid appeal? My family's change in income is significant enough that Duke's current offer would make it extremely difficult in attending if our income level remained at this level in the future. Any help appreciated. Thanks.</p>
<p>Yes definitely, you can appeal your financial aid at any time, even during the school year if your family’s financial circumstances undergo a significant change that can impact your ability to attend. Call or email your FA counselor or have your parents do it and explain the situation.</p>
