VERIFICATION

Verification means that the Financial Aid Office must determine the accuracy of the data you reported on your FAFSA/Renewal FAFSA by requesting documentation that will support the information you listed on the FAFSA/Renewal FAFSA.

If your FAFSA/Renewal FAFSA is selected for verification, you will be notified in writing of what documents we need from you.  If you are asked to submit additional information, you must provide it within 30 days of the date requested or eligibility for financial aid may be adversely affected.  

Once the documents are received by the University, you should receive award notification or revised award notification within 3 weeks.  Until the documents are received, your financial aid file is considered incomplete and processing will cease.  If you are selected for verification after you have been awarded, your awards are tentative, pending the completion and outcome of the verification.
