Dear Sir/Madam:

I have submitted the financial aid appeal form for the 2010/2011 academic year on behalf of my
daughter, Rory McCann, as well as her signed award letter, and our most recent pay stubs. As
you can see, there has been a significant reduction in income based on a lack of sales due to the
current economy.
Rory currently has two siblings attending college, placing this family under great financial stress.
We would greatly appreciate if you could reconsider the current award. Emerson College is
Rory’s first choice and was thrilled to have been accepted.
Thank you in advance for reconsidering this financial award. We appreciate the additional time
and sensitivity that you have given this matter.

Sincerely,
Maureen A. McCann
