titleFAFSA Verification
description

If your FAFSA has been selected for a process of verification:

The U.S. Department of Education often reviews FAFSA applications and selects a number of them to be verified in order to determine that information has been reported accurately and that aid is distributed fairly. The Financial Aid Office also verifies information on selected applications if inconsistent or conflicting information is present. Complete detailed explanation of the  FAFSA Verification process is availble on the UAS Financial Aid Website.
