  • One-time computer purchase
  • 16岁以下受抚养人的照顾费用(注意:请先与你的经济援助顾问讨论)

All requests must include supporting documentation for each expense. If you list expenses without any supporting documentation, the request will not be considered, and it will be automatically denied.

注意:电子游戏正规平台生和法律财务援助办公室可能会因为任何原因限制学生的增加金额. 如果确定该费用不是在当前的学术电子游戏软件期间发生的,或者如果它不是允许的教育相关费用, the request for an increase will be declined.
