Appeal Process

Under certain extenuating circumstances a student may appeal the satisfactory academic progress requirements. These circumstances include personal injury or illness during a period of enrollment; death of an immediate family member or legal guardian during a period of enrollment; or other unexpected, documented circumstances beyond the control of the student.

Appeals must be submitted to the WLU Financial Aid Office and must include supporting documentation of a student’s extenuating circumstances. The deadline to submit an appeal will be documented in the student’s notification of failure to meet SAP requirements. Appeals submitted after the published deadline will not be considered.
