Lost Eligibility Worksheet and Waiver Request Form

 

Waivers that are turned in after ___________________________ will not be processed in time to be used as a deferral towards tuition and fees.  You will be responsible for payment after this date.

 

Instructions:

 

ü Fill out page two – Lost Eligibility Worksheet by completing your name, SS# and Banner ID.  Choose the appropriate explanation.  If none of these reasons applies to your situation, a waiver probably WILL NOT be granted.  Keep in mind that some options require documentation or an explanation of the circumstances.  Waivers requiring documentation are only granted for circumstances beyond the student’s control.  Please note: leaving school or dropping classes in order to work is not grounds for a waiver.  You cannot use the same reason for more than one waiver except for reason #5.

 

ü Fill out page three – Waiver Request Form by completing name, SS# and Banner ID, address, whether it is for State or Federal Aid and sign the waiver.

 

ü Fill out page four – Authorization for Release of Health Records only if there was a medical reason.  Give this page to your medical provider to complete and return to our office.

 

ü After you have completed pages two and three (and page four if applicable) make an appointment with a Student Development Counselor to review and sign your Waiver Request Form.  Waivers will not be processed without a signature from their office.

 

ü If Student Development signs your Waiver Request Form, return all pages to the Financial Aid Office for approval.  You will be able to check the status of your waiver by logging in to your Banner account.  It takes five to seven days to receive notification.

A waiver may be granted only once for any particular situation.

 

 

Please Note:  If none of the reasons on page two applies to your situation,

a waiver probably WILL NOT be granted.
