VERIFICATION PROCESS

If you are selected for verification, we will not be able to credit your account with federal funds until the verification process has been completed.  You will be required to provide a signed copy of your (and your parent(s), if applicable) 2007 federal tax returns, W2s and all schedules, if you are selected for verification.  We will mail you a verification worksheet that will also need to be completed and returned to our office.

· If you did not or will not file a federal tax return, you will indicate that on the Verification Form and submit W2s for all applicable income.

· If you did not keep copies of your tax return, you may contact the IRS for a Free Transcript for Financial Aid Purposes (Form 1722) at 1-800-829-1040

· The University reserves the right to request and review this additional information and, if necessary, to reduce or cancel awards made based on inaccurate or incomplete family information.  The changes will be made at the time this office is aware of the revised information.  You and your family are responsible for the accuracy of all data submitted on your FAFSA and copies of federal tax returns and other associated documents.
