糖心logo在线入口 awards the best financial aid award we can within federal and state guidelines and within the limitations of our resources. Therefore, the idea that there is 鈥渞oom鈥 for negotiating a better financial aid award is not realistic. The 糖心logo在线入口 Appeals process and Federal Special Circumstance process described above are the two ways that an adjustment can be made to a student鈥檚 financial aid award (separate funds are set up for these purposes). Every school has different resources and strategies and 糖心logo在线入口 will not change awards simply based on a student receiving more aid from another institution. Additionally, 糖心logo在线入口 will not process a financial aid appeal unless a FAFSA has been filed by the student.
