What does it mean to be selected for verification for financial aid?

Some FAFSA^® applicants are selected for review in a process called verification.  The verification process will ensure that your financial eligibility is based on the correct information by requesting documentation to confirm the information provided on the FAFSA^®.  Any corrections that need to be made are done by the school through verification. Verification must be complete before aid eligibility can be confirmed. For more information on verification, visit the Verification Policy page.
