In order to submit them securely through Self-Service Banner (SSB), our office will need to add these documents to your student record. Please email our office to discuss your individual circumstances and receive further direction.
Special Circumstances Form	This form is used to communicate changes in family income and assets, and out-of-pocket medical and dental expenses that a student would like to include in their cost of attendance. It guides students and their families through the process of explaining circumstances thoroughly and providing appropriate documentation that will be needed in addition to the form.
