2008-2009 Academic Catalog - Queens University of Charlotte

329
Students ineligible to receive financial aid due to academic probation or continued academic
probation may appeal such action on a term by term basis. There is no limit to the number of
appeals that can be submitted by an individual student. Letters of appeals must be submitted
to the Office of Student Financial Services no later than two weeks before the end of the
probationary semester (end of exams) or notification of placement on probationary status.
Appeals must include an explanation of the circumstances contributing to the unsatisfactory
performance and how they have resolved the difficulties or their plan to improve performance.
Supporting documentation, such as a letter from a physician or counselor, should be included
when relevant. The student will be notified in writing of the final decision regarding whether the
appeal will be granted within two weeks of the receipt of the student’s appeal letter. If the
appeal is granted, the students’ progress is assumed to be satisfactory for the term in question
and aid eligibility for that term only is restored. If the appeal is denied, the student remains
ineligible. Appeal decisions made by the Associate VP and Director for Student Financial
Services are final.
