MLK Fall/Winter

Dear Scholarship Applicant, 
 
Document Uploads. To assist in the efficiency of completing applications, all upload fields are required. There are no exceptions. All questions regarding document uploads may be directed to the Finance Committee via vp.finance@icc.coop
 
Final Decision. All award decisions will be made by the Finance Committee. All recipients will be notified by email shortly thereafter. All questions regarding final decision may be directed to the Finance Committee via vp.finance@icc.coop
 
If you have a concern regarding a finance or scholarship policy or decision, or you have a special circumstance for us to consider, you may follow the appeal procedures below:

1. Present your situation to the VP for Finance (vp.finance@icc.coop.) All options for resolving the situation should be explored with the VP before moving to the next step. If the situation cannot be resolved, the VP will determine the course to take in Step Two.
2. One of the following actions will be taken:
   • Your situation will be presented by the VP for Finance to the Finance Committee. This occurs when unusual circumstances are presented that may require exceptions to standard finance or scholarship policies or procedures.
   • You may complete an appeal form here and schedule an appointment to discuss your circumstances with the Finance Committee. This occurs when unusual circumstances do not exist but a Finance Committee policy is questioned, or when a student is not satisfied with a policy as explained by the VP for Finance.
3. If, after completing Step 2, you feel the situation warrants further consideration, you may ask for a review and consultation with the Board of Directors.

In order to completely and fairly review your application, the Finance Committee requires the same documentation from every applicant. We unfortunately cannot accept screenshots or other unofficial documents (unless otherwise explicitly stated). If you are a non-student applying for the Solidarity Fund, you can upload blank pages for the class schedule and financial aid notice sections.
 

**ATTENTION**
 

Please provide documentation of any financial support provided by your parents/guardians. Some examples may include:

1. a letter from your guardian(s) stating such or
2. an EFC from FAFSA. 

This is required even if you do not receive any outside financial support.

**ATTENTION**
 
Your documentation must reflect your ability to pay your full tuition and all ICC charges. Please use the Text Box below to verify the total amount of tuition and how it is paid for. All of your claims must be backed up by the documentation you’ve already submitted. If you cannot prove your claims, the Finance Committee can not consider them.
 
Example 1: For this Spring and Summer, the total cost of my tuition is $28,000 (see Financial Aid Letter). The total cost of my charges are $2800 because I live in Gregory House. My parents pay for my rent in full (see Guardian Letter). $10,500 is covered by scholarships (see Financial Aid Letter). $15,000 is covered by my loans (see Financial Aid Letter). $1,500 is paid for by my job (see Pay Stub). $1,000 is paid for by guardians (see Guardian Letter). 
 
Example 2: For this Spring and Summer, the total cost of my tuition is $3,889.60 for the Spring (see Financial Aid Letter). $2,250 is covered by loans (see Financial Aid Letter). $750 is covered by grants (see Financial Aid Letter). The remaining $889.90 I pay for my job (see Pay Stub). My charges are $2800 for the Spring/Summer and my parents pay half of it (see Guardian Letter). The remaining $1400 I also pay for with my job (see Guardian Letter).
