I addressed that claim in a previous post, saying “the appeal in my case would more likely be to account for the discrepancy between the EFC and the actual possible contribution based on the previously mentioned factors, if any universities would actually grant an appeal on those grounds.” I understand that the likelihood of any university granting such an appeal is low, which is why I’m looking for others’ experiences in the FA appeal process that were successful and the conditions/institution that allowed for that success.
