Send your completed appeal to: Kentucky State University, Office of Financial Aid, c/o SAP Committee, Suite 349—ASB, Frankfort, KY 40601.
A student who loses his/her eligibility for FSA funds because the student fails to satisfy a school’s standard of satisfactory academic progress, other than when an appeal is granted for unusual or mitigating circumstances, can reestablish eligibility only by taking action that brings them into compliance with the qualitative and quantitative components of the school’s standard including the maximum timeframe. Should a student’s financial aid eligibility be terminated for failure to maintain satisfactory progress as defined, his/her financial aid will not be reinstated until the student enrolls for a subsequent academic term (fall, spring or summer term) at his/her own expense and completes the term(s) bringing the student back into compliance with the satisfactory progress definition. If the student now meets the SAP standards, the student should then file an appeal with the Office of Financial Aid to re-review the academic record.
