Verification


Financial Aid

Verification is a Federal process used to confirm students' eligibility for certain aid programs.

Students who are selected for verification must submit information to verify the data that they provided on the FAFSA.

Students selected for verification will be notified via a paper letter.

Financial aid will be disbursed to the student's account when verification is completed.
