5,000 students file for aid
By LESLIE GUILI Staff Reporter
About 5,000 KU students filed Family Financial Statements and have applied for financial aid for next year, Jerry Rogers, director of Financial Aid, said yesterday.
Although the office of Financial Aid has received notification of only 4,700 processed applications, Rogers said he had received information who applied would be about 5,000.
"Some students who did apply have not yet been totaled in the number of processed applications that have been reported to our office." Roers said.
Rogers speculated the delay was because some students' applications were not received by February 27, Iowa City, Iowa, until after Feb. 27, when the numbers of KU students who had filed applications were high.
Rogers said students who filed applications were being sent their processed application to the KU financial and office also received a comprehensive list of the need analysis of KU students who filed financial applications and budget of aid available at KU to award.
"We have to get information from high school seniors and from transfer students before making awards," he said. "And for students returning to KU we have to get spring grades. So, it's likely awards won't work." The upper spring semester grades are posted."
ROGERS SAID even though the office had received the comprehensive listings, financial awards to KU students would not be made until June.
Rogers said the length of time between receiving the financial statements and
"This year, through the office of admissions and records, we're able to list data about applicants on a word processor. This is why our students available much more conveniently."
making awards was improving because of "automated help."
ROGERS SAID the magnetic tape used in the word processor could condense data, which could be "drawn out" more easily than by looking at each individual's file.
Rogers said a preliminary need analysis also was made by KU.
"There's a fantastic number of hours in background work that goes into making the awards," he said. "And part of that is determining each student's need, which is done by looking at his file and making a preliminary need analysis.
"We also have to code students by their high school, county and major because some awards have requirements such as passing tests or obtaining students from particular areas of the state."
Rogers said the student financial aid report was used by some students to find
errors they might have made when originally completing it.
Rogers said a student could file a corrected form for $3. . .
"This shows them the figures that were used to calculate their original financial need statement," he said. "By this a student can double check to see if any information supplied by him was misunderstood or misread."
"Most mistakes made concern tax information that was reported incorrectly," Rogers said.
Standard for aid strict
Although obtaining a financial award might seem like a big hassel, keeping it
The programs include National Direct Student Loans, Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants, College Work-Study, Health Professions Student Loans, Law Programs, and Basic Educational Opportunity Grants and the Guaranteed Student Loan Programs.
KU recently has formulated a statement of "reasonable progress," to be used to determine re-awarding of federal financial aid for the new director of financial aid, said yesterday.
Rogers said federal government regulations made a progress standard
"We actually established a standard last fall," he said. "And in order to keep our funding we must abide by it in awarding."
For example, Rogers said, a student who wanted to keep a financial award for a second semester, after he had completed his first semester of college, would have to 24 credit hours with a grade point average of 1.30.
ROGERS SAID the standard included both completing a minimum number of credits with a minimum grade point and passing a minimum number of semesters a student had completed.
The minimum grade point average for award renewal was raised last fall one grade point from 1.0 to 2.0 over ten semesters.
"It isn't a hard standard to achieve," he said. "So very few students at KU aren't able to abide by it. And therefore, very few are considered on appeal."
Rogers said those students who have lost their awards could appeal in writing.
"WE HAVE A committee of three persons from this office who do check the appeals," be said. "And usually the only exceptions are for students who have qualified extremely extinguishing circumstances."

"We're working on just how to handle the situation now," Rogers said. "It doesn't seem fair that one student who just sits the semester out can come back and get an award, when a student who might have tried to finance his own way through the course because he had lost his奖 and not completed the standard, might not get an award."
Rogers said although not many students lost awards because they could not obtain the standard, problems with students were evident. Rogers went to school for a semester had occurred.

Greenwild she thinks West Coast designers offer a line of clothes that represents a more casual, relaxed and youthful style of material and a vividness in color.
"Both the East Coast and the West are thinking along the same fashion lines this spring," she said. "But in California, we design clothes with a fresher, more modern aesthetic." Our attitude toward designing fabrics on all-to-the-fire lifebite here."
"In New York, everything has to match and coordinate," she says. "They're more worried about creating the correct three-piece ensemble there."
She argues that fashion ideas can be differentiated on the basis of which coast they hall from.
She calls New York designers conservative and gives California designers the credit for coming out with bright, bold colors.
"We first took the chance with the bright colors. We didn't think they were anything unusual, but in New York, it was bit more scary of a venture."
Terrence O'Neil, a designer for Gant Fashionists Inc. in New York, defends what Greenwald refers to as the conservatism of New York designers. East Coast designers, he says, don't have the ability to use color as do California.
"We have to deal with a heavy winter season. It's all sun and warm weather in California. Anyway, in the East, people usually prefer deep, earthy toes."
O'Nell suggests that this outlook is changing with the coming of spring. Designers from the East are starting to use bright colors in their work, he says, but they are not the only distinguishing factor between East and West Coast designers.
"The difference is that the East looks toward tailored styles while the West is more relaxed." he said.
Lee MoCGoff, buyer-owner of Britches Corner, 843 Massachusetts St., calls designs from the West Coast more "dress-down and funky." He agrees with Greenwald that East Coast designers tend to be more conservative.
McGuffey buys fashions from such East Coast designers as Yves St. Laurent, Regina Porter, Calvin Klein, John Henry and Gant. From the West Coast, he picks up clothes from designers the far-out designer clothes that we get including Clovis Ruffin and Norman Todd.
"If you look at the clothes in these lines, you can really tell the difference between coasts," he says. "Bright colors are more evident in fashions from the West Coast. Most designers from the East don't use the look as much. Calvin
