The ADM will notify the Financial Aid and Scholarships (FAS) and the student’s financial aid package will be canceled.
The procedure for requesting reinstatement of the canceled aid is as follows:

II. Once the written request is received by the FAS, the aid will be reinstated, if funds are available.
III. If funds are not available, the student will be put on a waiting list for any available funding during late awarding.
IV. The student must accept the re-awarded aid on Enroll and Pay.
