<p>So, I’m in the process of appealing my financial aid termination (maximum time frame was the reason I was given), and the FA office wants a written statement as to why I haven’t yet completed the requirements for my degree program complete with documentation.</p>
<p>The reason why I haven’t completed it yet is because 2 years ago, when I last attended the school, there were two separate semesters where I ended up missing a large chunk of my classes due to having to take care of my mother and hold down a full time job, and because my professors were less than understanding, I withdrew instead of taking an F. My question is, what kind of documentation should I submit with my written statement pertaining to my mother’s illness that doesn’t violate her patient privilege with her doctor?</p>
