Scholarship appeals may be addressed by submitting a Scholarship Petition cover sheet and a detailed (typed) letter describing extenuating circumstances which contributed to the failure to meet academic requirements. The letter should be composed as a business letter would be written; it should include your name, current address, email address, contact phone number and UNM/Banner ID. Additional documentation, i.e., medical, legal, support letters from advisors and/or faculty, is encouraged. You must also include an unofficial copy of your transcript.
Complete petitions can be dropped off at the One Stop in Mesa Vista Hall on main campus or mailed to:
UNM Financial Aid

Albuquerque, NM 87131
Notification of appeal decision will be sent via email and Loboweb. While in Loboweb, click on the "Financial Aid" tab, click the "Overall Status of Your Financial Aid" link, on the drop down menu, select the appropriate academic year. Once a decision on your appeal letter has been decided, you will see a message that states, "You have active messages." Click on that link to read the appeal committees decision. The message only remains on your Loboweb account for two (2) to four (4) weeks. However, it remains on your student Banner account indefinitely.
