To comply with federal regulations, UA Rich Mountain is required to monitor whether a student is maintaining satisfactory
progress in his or her course of study. Students who have been denied financial aid because they have not met the requirements
of the Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy are given the opportunity to appeal for an exemption from the policy. In order
to apply for an exemption, a student must document extenuating circumstances that existed and prevented him/her from meeting
the requirements.
The student can submit an appeal if he/she has failed to meet Satisfactory Academic Progress requirements. By submitting
this appeal, the student is requesting that his/her extenuating or unusual circumstances be considered in order to have financial
aid reinstated.
The following steps will be followed in deciding the student’s appeal:
The appeal will be evaluated by the Financial Aid Office. After the appeal has been reviewed, the student will be advised in
writing the results of the appeal. If the appeal is approved, the financial aid office will reinstate the student’s aid for the
semester requested. If denied by the Financial Aid Office, the student may request a personal interview with the Student
Appeals Committee by submitting the request to the Vice President of Student Affairs.
The decision of the Student Appeals Committee is final. The committee has the authority to approve or deny the appeal.
This decision will be final.
I understand that if I do not provide the required documentation for this appeal my request will be denied.
