Appeals may be addressed by submitting a detailed (typed) letter describing extenuating circumstances which contributed to the failure to meet academic requirements.  The letter should be composed as a business letter would be written; it should include your name, current address, email address, contact phone number and UNM/Banner ID.  Additional documentation, i.e., medical, legal, support letters from advisors and/or faculty, is encouraged.  You must also include an unofficial copy of your transcripts from Records and Registration. 

Address it to the Scholarship Committee of your scholarship.  If you are addressing the Presidential Scholarship Committee, be sure to mention it; or the Lottery Scholarship Committee, UNM Scholars Scholarship Committee and so on.  Letters should be addressed and dropped off at the Scholarship Office at:

UNM Scholarship Office
[Scholarship Name] Scholarship Committee
Mesa Vista Hall Room 3019
MSC06 3670
Albuquerque, NM  87131

Notification of appeal decision will be sent via Loboweb.  While in Loboweb, click on the "Financial Aid" tab, click the "Overall Status of Your Financial Aid" link, on the drop down menu, select the appropriate academic year, currently "Financial Aid Year 2009-2010."  Once a decision on your appeal letter has been decided, you will see a message that states, "You have active messages."  Click on that link to read the appeal committees decision.  The message only remains on your Loboweb account for two (2) to four (4) weeks.  However, it remains on your student Banner account indefinitely. 

NM Legislative Lottery Success Scholarship appeals will be responded to with a formal letter to the mailing address you provided on your appeal.
