Verification

A minimum of 30 percent of aid applicants are selected by the Federal Student Aid Programs to submit documentation to verify the figures included on the FAFSA. The student and parent(s) must submit signed copies of their Federal Income Tax returns and W-2s. Students also need to complete a verification worksheet which indicates household size and non-taxable income received.

If there are discrepancies between the FAFSA information and the verification documents, the Office of Student Financial Services will make the changes on the FFSA and may result in changes in aid eligibility. This could result in a change in the amounts of federal, state and Mount Union aid as well as loans and student employment. Federal, state, and institutional aid cannot be confirmed until the process of verification has been completed.
