[NABS-L] Denial of services because of out of home state schooling

[cjmullin225 at aol.com]

Hello Emma,

Is it possible that your school may be contesting funding summer courses because they are "not required to maintain good academic standing?" That is, the agency may feel that completing the degree "in a more timely manner" is not essential to completing your degree in a time-frame they deem to be typical of a batchelors. I am currently in the process of receiving funding to attend grad school out of state, and I needed a letter from the head of my program confirming that summer courses were essential for graduating on time in order to receive money for those courses.

I'm sorry that you are experiencing this; I hope this helps in some way.

HI!
So I need advice
Does anyone have the experience of being denied services because you go to out of state school?
I currently live in Pennsylvania but I go to George Washington university in Washington DC My vocational services in services just recently denied summer classes to get my degree in a more timely manner even with a disability services letter of justification that they asked for what  I’m wondering is can they deny based on out of state and what are my rights as a consumer? Anyone have experience with this?
Emma
