&lt;P&gt;I am writing this letter to ask the financial aid committee not termiate my financial aid for the 2007-2008 year. I was unware that I was not meeting academic requirments. I have worked very hard in my studies. I performed the best of my abilities.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: Financial aid appeal letter</title><link>http://www.englishforums.com/English/FinancialAidAppealLetter/vkcgd/post.htm#383897</link><pubDate>Sun, 24 Jun 2007 22:01:44 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="true">946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:383897</guid><dc:creator>Anonymous</dc:creator><slash:comments>1</slash:comments><comments>http://www.englishforums.com/English/FinancialAidAppealLetter/vkcgd/post.htm#383897</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://www.englishforums.com/English/comments5-383897.xml</wfw:commentRss><description>Thank!&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: Financial aid appeal letter</title><link>http://www.englishforums.com/English/FinancialAidAppealLetter/vkcbx/post.htm#383823</link><pubDate>Sun, 24 Jun 2007 17:19:17 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="true">946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:383823</guid><dc:creator>Doll</dc:creator><slash:comments>2</slash:comments><comments>http://www.englishforums.com/English/FinancialAidAppealLetter/vkcbx/post.htm#383823</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://www.englishforums.com/English/comments5-383823.xml</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;P&gt;&lt;B&gt;&lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493"&gt;Financial Aid Appeal Committee,&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/B&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;B&gt;&lt;/B&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;B&gt;I am really thankful for the generous award letter, but I still can not afford to attend &amp;lt;hide&amp;gt; University. On the award letter sent to me on June 22, 2007, it suggested that my parents should take a $9500 Federal Plus Loan. My parents have $480,000 mortgages that they are struggling to payâthey pay $2,710.53 for the first mortgage and $1,188.08 for the second mortgage (monthly). Yet, they make only $4200 from their jobs. They also &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493"&gt;need pay&lt;/FONT&gt; for utilities and &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493"&gt;foods&lt;/FONT&gt;âthey are scrambling every dollar to pay these bills. &amp;nbsp;Therefore, I can not see myself asking my parents to take another loan on my behalf. My family simply can not financially support my college education.&lt;/B&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;B&gt;There is no doubt in my mind that I will &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493"&gt;succeed at&lt;/FONT&gt; &amp;lt;hide&amp;gt; University. &amp;nbsp;My first semester grade point average is 3.3 at &amp;lt;hide&amp;gt; University and my second semester grade point average is 3.6 at University of &amp;lt;hide&amp;gt; . I was struggling at the first semester, but I &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493"&gt;corrected &lt;/FONT&gt;most of my academic weakness.&lt;/B&gt; &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;B&gt;University of &amp;lt;hide&amp;gt; gives me &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493"&gt;full a&lt;/FONT&gt; scholarship. However, I decided to come back to &amp;lt;hide&amp;gt; University because MU has wonderful teachers, staffs, and learning &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493"&gt;environments&lt;/FONT&gt;. It is really tempting to go to that college for free but I am willing to take Subsidized Stafford Loan to go Marymount University. &lt;/B&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;B&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; I am convinced that with the help of this committee I will able to finish my college educationâ&lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493"&gt;MU tuition assistance.&lt;/FONT&gt; I want to express my sincere appreciation for giving me the opportunity to explain my financial circumstances. &amp;nbsp;I am looking forward to&lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493"&gt; hear&lt;/FONT&gt; good new from you.&lt;/B&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
