Forms

These forms are used to amend your financial aid.  They are not specific to any one academic term or year. 

The Request to Reinstate Previously Declined Funds form is used when a student wishes to have funds they previously declined re-added to their aid package.  This request can be made until 2 weeks before the end of the academic term to which the request is being made.  This allows us for processing time.  If you are submitting this form with the intent to receive a refund please check your account at studentadmin.uconn.edu to make sure your refund method is accurate.

The Request to Return Previous Accepted Funds form us used when a student wishes to return funds they previously accepted.  Like the previous form please submit no later than 2 weeks before the end of the academic term to allow for processing.  Please keep in mind that returning funds may result in a balance owed to the bursar.  Any balance owed is the responsibility of the student to repay.  If you want to return funds and the academic term or year has elapsed you can make a payment directly to your loan servicer through their website.

The Budget Adjustment form is used when a student is requesting an increase to their budget or cost of attendance due to a required or necessary academic expense that is not already covered by their budget.  Common examples include, but are not limited to, away rotations, residency trips, catastrophic car repair, and study aids.  When submitting this form please include the following:

• A brief explanation of the nature of the request.  If you are requesting and increase due to travel please provide a brief itinerary.
• Clear receipts for all purchases.  Receipts must include the dollar amount of the purchase and the date the purchase was made.  Bank or credit card statements showing the transaction are not acceptable.

Please keep in mind that submitting a Budget Adjustment Request form does not guarantee your expenses will be covered in full.  The office will review and determine what expenses and how much can be used to increase a student’s budget.  Due to the complicated nature of this process we may email with additional questions, and the overall process can take several days.  **Please remember that requests of this nature must be made in the same academic term as the expense occurred and must be submitted no later than 3 weeks before the end of the term to allow for processing.**

If you have questions about the nature of the form, or when to submit, please contact our office via email.  These forms are used for medical and dental students only.
