Question:c What is the verification process?

Answer: The financial aid office will review your federal tax returns and other submitted material and compare them with the information you submitted on the FAFSA. It is to the student’s benefit to respond to and complete the verification process as quickly as possible because no packaging, awarding, and disbursement of aid will be made until verification is completed. If there are any differences found between information reported in the FAFSA and actual figures reported in tax returns and other required documentation, adjustments will be made to the FAFSA you submitted. Your award will be based upon the corrected information.
