[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP. What is involved in appealing an aid offer. When would one do that and how?[/quote] My parents did this when I was in college by contacting the financial aid office after I received the offer. It was a pretty unusual situation, but one parent had lost a job a few months before (so big income drop not reflected in the prior year's taxes) and I think the school had also counted a trust for a disabled sibling's long term care as a parental asset. My parents showed documentation for that and the school took it out of the picture of assets to be drawn down. Not sure our example helps OP whatsoever, but the point was it was a highly individualized and relatively informal process.[/quote] PS we were not in the "donut hole," I was set to receive some need based aid, but appealing increased it.[/quote]
