Financial Aid Appeal Letter due to bad grades due to this covid 19

 

Dear (teacher/principal),

I would like to appeal the loss of my financial aid due to bad grades and briefly explain my extenuating circumstances to you. I am sure that you can look at my record for the past two years and see that my grades this last semester are very unusual for me. I had a hard tike coping with the pandemic, it's hard for me to attend all of the webinars we have/had. Both my parents haves lost their job due to Covid 19 pandemic, we have limited resources.

Although I did work hard and took advantage of tutoring services, I am pre-med and, therefore, have a very challenging schedule including (subject), (subject), (subject) and (subject). I passed all of my classes with C's which caused my GPA to drop to a 2.9 which is .1 lower than the 3.0 minimum to maintain my financial aid. I am completely recovered now and can assure you that, if given one more semester, I will raise my GPA to over 3.0 in the next semester. I have attached all required appeal forms and ask that you lease consider my request. Thank you in advance.

Sincerely,
