Verification
What is Verification?
The U.S. Department of Education selects students to be reviewed in a process called verification. For students who are selected, it is necessary for the Financial Aid Office to collect documentation in order to confirm the accuracy of the information reported on the FAFSA. The University also reserves the right to select a student for verification if documentation on the FAFSA does not appear to be accurate or if we receive conflicting information.
If you are selected for verification, you will be notified through your Ship email address and your myShip account. You must submit all required documentation before any Title IV aid can be disbursed to your account. Once all required documentation is submitted and reviewed, Title IV aid may be increased, reduced or even canceled based on this information.
Failure to comply with verification will result in no federal or state aid being funded to you.
