Special Circumstances

If your family’s financial circumstances change significantly after completing the FAFSA, contact UT’s Financial Aid Office. Examples of changes may include separation or divorce, death of a major wage earner, loss or reduction of income by at least 25 percent, out-of-pocket medical expenses, those affected by a Federally-declared disaster, or elementary or secondary tuition expenses. Financial need may then be re-evaluated. Speak to your financial aid counselor to determine if your family circumstances qualify, and the documentation required.
