Important Considerations
In the event you receive notification of loss of TELS eligibility, YOU...
- have 30 days after notification to file an appeal with the Financial Aid Office (additional time, up
to a maximum total of 45 days, may be granted in the event of verifiable,
documented extenuating circumstances that prevent you from
filing an appeal within 30 days);
- should provide detailed, verifiable information, documentation, and
explanation for the circumstances surrounding and/or precipitating your loss of eligibility;
- should give the Financial Aid Office and the TELS Institutional Review
Panel (IRP) (composed of ETSU students, faculty, and staff) a minimum
of two (2) weeks to review and respond to your appeal;
- should be prepared to meet with the TELS IRP in person at its next scheduled meeting to offer
additional or new verifiable information related to your appeal;
- have the right to appeal to the Tennessee Student Assistance Corporation in Nashville if the
ETSU TELS IRP denies your appeal:
