SAP (Satisfactory Academic Progress) Appeal?

i just got a letter from my school about a letter that I'm not satisfying the SAP or Satisfactory Academic Progress of my degree. I'm currently a senior taking electrical engineering at UNLV. I transferred from the Philippines back in 2006 but I wasn't able to go back to school until Spring of 2010. I took 170 credits from my previous school, which is 44 credits short from earning my Bachelors degree in Electronics and Communications Engineering. I switched to Electrical Engineering at UNLV because most of the courses I took before are transferable to UNLV. I did process the transfer credit paperwork and submitted my transcript from my previous school. They awarded me 134 credits but some of it does not have an equivalent to any subject in UNLV or if it does, it doesn't satisfy the degree requirements of my major. I already took 2 semesters at UNLV and they sent me an email stating that I'm close to the 186 credit limit in order for me to be eligible for financial aid. I browsed little bit on the financial aid website and found an appeal form for the SAP. I don't know what to do from here on. I can't afford college because I don't live with my parents and I support myself. Please help me with this situation. Thanks
