New regulations from the Department of Education requires institutions to check unusual enrollment history in an effort to prevent fraud and abuse in the Federal Pell Grant Program.
Federal regulations allow the Financial Aid Office to determine whether a student should continue receiving Title IV aid to students that failed to earn credit at previously attended institutions if they can document that there were mitigating circumstances beyond their control.
Documentation must support the reasons given by the student for the student’s failure to earn academic credit and that the student did not enroll only to receive credit balance funds.

Suggestions on Writing Your Appeal

Submit your appeal as soon as possible.
A reason for appealing would be an extenuating circumstance under which you had no control and which you can document why academic credit was not earned.
The appeal should explain in detail the reason(s) for not earning academic credit at any previously attended institutions. Your statement for your appeal should consist of three parts:

In Part I, Complete School History Chart (list institutions previously attended during the four year award period (2013-2014, 2014-2015, 2015-2016, 2016-2017) where you received Pell Grant funding).

In Part II, explain how the circumstances prevented you from earning academic credit at each of the previously attended institutions.

In Part III, explain how you will be able to meet the academic plan and earn credit at JCC.
