    Appeals

    Students are welcome to appeal student loan award decisions. Appeal forms are available at Student Financial Services or by clicking the links below. Students may appeal the following decisions:

    Student Contribution: In order to appeal your student contribution, you must show that you were unable to save the expected amount from your pre-study work period. Reasons for student contribution appeals are listed on the appeal form.

    Parental Contribution:Parents must show that they are unable to contribute the expected amount towards the applicant's education because of reasons beyond their control. Unexpected expenses such as car/home repairs and medical bills or a reduced income may be considered for an appeal. Ongoing monthly expenses such as mortgage, loans or utilities are not appeal items because they are included in the Moderate Standard of Living allowance which is used to calculate a student's financial need.

    Spousal or Single Parent Contribution: Ongoing monthly expenses such as a mortgage, loans and utilities may be considered for single, married or common-law students.
