After you apply you may be asked for additional documentation; if so,
send documents promptly.
After you submit your FAFSA, the federal processor will send
you a Federal Student Aid Report (SAR). The SAR indicates
your expected family contribution, used to determine eligibility for
aid.
If you provide your email address on your FAFSA, you will receive online SAR information as soon as 24 hours after your FAFSA is processed. If you do not receive it within ten days of mailing your FAFSA, contact the federal processor at 1-800-433-3243.
Your application may be selected for Verification. What is Verification?
Verification is a process of confirming data supplied by
the applicant and/or parents on your financial aid application.
Each year about 30 percent of students' financial aid applications
nationwide are chosen.
If your application is selected for verification, you will receive
a letter from us explaining what documents to provide. Do not submit
documents unless we ask you to. Your aid cannot be disbursed until
you have submitted all requested documents and your information
has been checked.
