Changes in your family’s financial circumstances

Sometimes, your FAFSA does not reflect your family’s current resources or ability to pay for college because of special circumstances. 

Special circumstances can include:

  • An unforeseen loss of employment or income
  • The death of a parent or spouse
  • The divorce or separation of a student or parent
  • An income reduction of 20 percent or more due to factors beyond the person’s control
  • A significant income reduction due to the loss of child support
  • Unusually high medical or dental expenses that aren't covered by insurance
  • A one-time increase in parent income due to an IRA distribution or pension withdrawal

M State considers financial aid changes on a case-by-case basis to accurately reflect your financial need. Please contact the financial aid office for more information and assistance.
