Follow these steps to appeal a tuition charge:

  1. Download the Student Account Appeals Form and fill it out.
  2. Deliver the form to the Office of Student Financial Services at 103 Young Hall or at StudentAccounts@LincolnU.edu.
  3. Once your form has been received, the Student Accounts Appeals Committee will meet to make a decision regarding your appeal, utilizing Lincoln University's policies, procedures and the information you provide. The committee aims to meet monthly. However, during peak times, they may not be able to meet as frequently.
  4. Once a decision is made, the committee chair will email you the verdict within two weeks.
  5. If you disagree with the decision made by the committee, you may request a second review by the University's Bursar by providing the original appeal information and any additional supporting materials
