Your FAFSA has been randomly selected by the US Department of Education for a review process called verification.  Please submit all requested materials (as listed in your online Financial Aid checklist) as soon as possible to the Financial Aid Office.
 
To complete the verification process, you must:
 
  1. Complete your FAFSA using the IRS Data Retrieval Tool.  After you file your current federal income tax return, please access your online FAFSA, make a correction, and use the IRS Data Retrieval Tool.  This will update your FAFSA with your current tax information directly from the IRS.
  2. If you are ineligible to use the IRS Data Retrieval Tool, you are required to submit an IRS tax transcript of your federal income tax return.  You can request an official tax transcript online, or phone (800) 908-9946.  There is no charge from the IRS to request this documentation.
Please note that if you filed your taxes electronically, you may need to wait 1-2 weeks (6-8 weeks if you filed your taxes via mail) before accessing your FAFSA to use the IRS Data Retrieval Tool.
 
If we are not able to verify your FAFSA, your Financial Aid will be withheld.
