Problem
My financial situation has changed. What can I do to see if I qualify for more financial assistance?
Solution
The Office of Financial Aid will consider special circumstances, which may affect your need, on a case-by-case basis.
Reasons that may be considered for a Special Circumstances Review include:
- loss of income due to layoff
- disability
- divorce
- separation or loss of untaxed benefits
Please contact the Financial Aid Office at fa@pccc.edu if you feel you have an extreme situation that may allow for a Special Circumstances Review.
The student will need to speak with a Financial Aid Counselor to determine the documents to submit for:
- special circumstances
- dependency override
- professional judgment
