<p>Is it better to request an appointment and go ask in person for more FA (of course, bringing documentation as to the circumstances)?</p>
<p>OR, calling/faxing?</p>
<p>The college is about 5 hours away from home…</p>
<p>definitely call. They will tell you what their rules/process is. I don’t think driving somewhere with a stack of paper is going to make any difference. </p>
<p>They will tell you what documentation to present and when/how to do it.</p>
