It’s not too late to get financial aid for 2016-2017 but you will have to act fast!

Some students’ FAFSAs are chosen by the Dept. of Education to be “verified,” meaning our office will need additional paperwork before we can pay any financial aid. If you took spring classes, the deadline to submit the paperwork is Friday, May 5th. After that point it will be difficult for us to determine how much and what kind of financial aid you’re eligible for.

Often we will need your tax documents, and with the IRS Data Retrieval Tool down this could take up to two weeks. Start gathering this information ASAP if you’ve not already.

Check out the full 2016-2017 verification calendar on our website.
