Is my Financial Aide appeal letter good?

[Elayne]

Any suggestions...I am requesting you sincere consideration in reviewing my financial aid reinstatement. My name is xxxxxxx and I am requesting a appeal for the 2009-2010 academic school year. Seven years ago in 2002 I was dismissed from your college due to academic issues. The reason I left was to become a homemaker. It is now I know that this decision was childish and immature.Since then I have been married and divorced, and I am now a single mother of three young children. I have matured tremendously and I am a responsible. My education has always been something that I desired to obtain, however my ex-husband did not want that for me. Instead he was the sole breadwinner for our family, and because of this I learned to depend on him for my family’s needs. However, he has decided to move on, and now I am depending on Social Services (welfare) for our needs.It has been my dream to become an Elementary School Teacher, and I feel and believe that I am ready to pursue this dream. I wish to start with the Certificate and then to continue study for my Associates and then to transfer for my Bachelors Degree. The only thing that is hindering me from achieving this goal is having the funding to attend. I know that if this appeal is approved I will be successful. I will do whatever it takes to acheieve my goal. I have taken all the steps neccecary to start school on September 2, 2009 and I am ready to begin my studies and reach for higher levels of acheivment. I am a hard working student and the upcoming semester will prove so. So again, I ask for your sincere consideration in reviewing my eligibility. Please take this letter into consideration and give me another chance to prove my dedication. Thanks for Your Time,

When it comes to financial aid or scholarship questions, I just tell my friends to go to the site http://www.FinancialAidQuick.com and take a look around.Its excellent starting point with several good sources of information.

It will not be approved because dropping out of school to be a homemaker is not an extenuating circumstance to justify reinstating your aid.

Suddenly human is dead wrong...... I had to appeal also and it was pretty much the same thing with me I got an approval letter in my school email you could add how you will do it like who is your support system and such but I think you will be approved to return to school and get the help you need for you to provide for your familyYOU GO GIRL!!!!!

Choosing to become a "homemaker" is not a childish and immature decision. That statement is a slap in the face to millions of stay-at-home parents! I'd definitely consider changing this sentence to something more objective . Otherwise it's quite good. If this is your first appeal, then I'm sure you will get approved .
