Answer:

You can appeal their decision but if you're living at home it's pretty hard to do.I think the best thing to do would be to go to a bank to get a student loan. I had the same problem and ended up getting a student line of credit, the only bad part is there's interest while you're in school (but it's a very small amount). You can still apply for scholarships through your institution and hope for something there as well.
