5,000 students file for aid
By LESLIE GUILD 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 no reason to number 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 the school in Iowa City, Iowa, until after Feb. 27, when the numbers of KU students who had filed their applications were high.
Rogers said students who filed applications were being sent their processed financial statement by mail. He said the department had a comprehensive list of the need analysis of KU students who filed financial statements for the budget of aid and loan to KU to help them.
ROGERS SAID even though the office had received the comprehensive listings, financial awards to KU students would not be made until June.
"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 spring grads. So, it really awards won't get higher." The spring semester grades are posted."
Rogers said the length of time between receiving the financial statements and
making awards was improving because of "automated help."
"This year, through the office of admissions and records, we are able to data about applicants on a word processor. We also have students available much more conveniently."
ROGERS SAID the magnetic tape used in the word processor could condense student data, which could be "drawn out" 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 an exam or receiving 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.
"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 bassel, keeping it
KU recently has formulated a statement of "reasonable progress," to be used to determine re-sawing of federal financial assistance and the director of financial and said volunteers.
The programs include National Direct Student Loans, Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants, College Work-Study, Health Professions Student Loans, Law Enforcement Educational Loans, Basic Educational Opportunities and the State Loans.
Rogers said federal government regulations made a progress standard mandatory.
ROGERS SAID the standard included both completing a minimum number of credits with a minimum grade point or passing the maximum number of semesters a student had completed.
For example, Roger, said a student who wanted to keep a financial award for a graduate program in his first semester of college, would have to have 24 credit hours with a grade point average.
"We actually established a standard last fall," he said. "And in order to keep our hands off the floor, we had to close."
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's not a hard standard to achieve," he said. "So very few students at KU aren't able to be able by it. And therefore, very few are considered on anneal."
"WE HAVE A committee of three persons from this office who do check the appeals," he said. "And usually the only exceptions are for students who have qualified extremely extinquent circumstances."
"We're working on just how to handle the situation now," Rogers said. "It doesn't seem fair that one student who只 sits the semester out can come back and get an award, when a student who might have been the only student in the semester, because he had lost his award and not completed the standard, might not get an award."
Rogers said not many students lost awards because they could not obtain the standard, problems with students and teachers, building school for a semester had occurred
Rogers said those students who have lost their awards could appeal in writing.

Although KU men might enjoy seeing a little female flesh, KU women aren't offering it, according to swimwear sales trends in Lawrence.
The clothes salesmen of Lawrence seem to agree that one-piece swimsuits are outselling the two-pieces by a sizable margin.
"I would say 70 percent of sales is in the one-pieces and 30 percent in the two-pieces," Beverly Temple, manager of the Attic, 927 Massachusetts St., said.
She added that her store no longer carried two-pieces this year.
"I've had good luck with one-pieces."
The most popular one-piece is a new style, which has a bandeau top, that is cut straight across the chest with optional spaghetti straps. The legs are cut high—a French cut—and are designed to accentuate and lengthen the legs.
"People seem to be getting a lot more modest about what they wear," she

Backs are generally low and often crisscross. There is also a skimpy one piece that resembles a piece except the top and bottom are identical that connect the top and bottom.

Lucy Smith, sales clerk at the Jay Shoppe, 835 Massachusetts St., said her store had sold a lot more one-pieces than two-pieces.
