Financial aid awards may be reviewed based on special circumstances. If a student wants his/her financial aid to be reviewed, the student and parent(s) (if applicable) should complete a Knox College Special Circumstances form provided on the Office of Student Financial Services forms page. Additional information and documentation may be required by the Office of Student Financial Services.
The most common special circumstances are:
Unusual Medical/Dental Expenses
Private Elementary/Secondary School Tuition
Educational Debt
Reduced Parent/Student Income
Reviews are handled in the order that they are received. Increases in financial aid eligibility that result from adjustments are met on a funds-available basis. Loan funds and a work award totaling maximum eligibility are usually awarded before additional grant aid is considered.
