Hello,
I recently applied to CSN for Pre-Nursing. I have a Bachelor's Degree already from Illinois. But I want to go back to school.... in Vegas!...I have never used Financial Aid before. This is my first time applying for it...In My CSN Dashboard To Do List it reads:
[TABLE=class: PSGROUPBOXNBO, width: 515]
[TR]
[TD=class: PAGROUPDIVIDER, bgcolor: #DAE2EE, align: left]Prior Bachelors Degree[/TD]
[/TR]
[TD=width: 515][TABLE=class: PSGROUPBOX, width: 515]
[TD=width: 8][/TD]
[TD=width: 480][/TD]
[TD=width: 27][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD]You are not eligible to receive a Federal Pell Grant because you reported that you have a bachelors degree (Item 28) or you are working on a degree beyond a bachelors degree (Item 48). If you already have a bachelor (4 yrs) or master (6 yrs) degree you will need to submit a max credit appeal to receive financial aid at CSN.Your Financial Aid Administrator will determine what types of federal student aid you are eligible to receive.
[/TD]
[/TABLE]

[TD=colspan: 7]
Does anyone know how to go about "Submitting a max appeal" to Financial Aid? I called Financial Aid this morning and the lady sounded confused. She was very vague. She said I needed to write a letter to Financial Aid. Has anyone done this before? I can't find any "Max Credit Appeal" Forms on the website to submit...
HELP PLEASE :) Thank you![/TD]

I'd suggest contacting a counselor or call a different campus if you can't find anything online!

Contact an in-house counselor. I had to do one. It was like satisfactory academic progress appeal form. It was easy and the counselor didn't bat an eye because a lot of nursing students in the ADN program fill them out.
