Verification
Students may be asked to provide documentation in addition to the as part of the verification process. Please only submit additional information if we request you to do so.
What is Verification?
Verification is a process to review data reported on your FAFSA and confirm its accuracy. If selected, students are required to provide any requested documentation. Failure to submit documentation by the deadline may prevent the student from receiving financial aid entirely.
We primarily verify income data and will submit corrections to the FAFSA if we find any discrepancies. Any corrections to the FAFSA may result in an adjustment to a student鈥檚 aid eligibility.
How Does Verification Impact My Aid?
We provide an estimate of financial aid the spring before students' first year of college only to those to have completed the FAFSA. These estimates may change in the verification process.
Verification can stop most of your financial aid from applying to your bill. It's important to submit requested information as soon as possible in order to receive your aid.
Submitting Additional Information
We'll send you an email to let you know what (if any) documents are needed. These requested items will be listed as a "To-Do" item in If you have already submitted a document, it will appear in your 鈥淭o-Do鈥 list.
You'll be notified by email if any adjustments to your aid are made as a result of the information you submitted.
If you make a mistake on the FAFSA you can submit a correction through their website. We'll receive the corrections if our school code is included on your FAFSA.
