  • Answer:

    Even if nothing on your end changed, it's possible that the requirements for the pell grant changed. It's also possible that your income changed just enough to make you ineligible. A 2000 pell grant is only a partial award so that means that you barely qualified in the first place so just a small change in income may be responsible You have the right to file an appeal but unless you have some extenuating circumstance where your income for 2014 is going to be drastically different than 2013 it's a waste of time. Examples of this would be parent job loss, 2013 inheritance, gift or prize, etc. "But, I got it last year" is not really grounds for an appeal.

Well did the amount of your income or parents income change? If you are making more or they are making more that's probably why you no longer get it. I mean you should be working regardless and if you are only getting $2K a year that's only $1K a semester which you could probably make more than that a semester working a job anyways. I would try calling and asking financial aid why.
