Federal Verification
Verification is a process in which the Federal and State governments require colleges to collect documentation to verify the accuracy and completeness of the data used to determine a student’s aid eligibility. The process is used to find any common errors that might have been made when filling out the FAFSA. Applicants are randomly selected by the federal student aid processing center to complete verification.
If you have been selected for verification, you will be notified by Stevens Institute of Technology’s Office of Financial Aid. We will also inform you of all required documents.
Any need-based aid that has been awarded to a freshman will not be disbursed until the student has completed verification.
Continuing students, who have been selected, will not receive a financial aid package until the process has been completed.
Therefore, it is very important that any requested documentation is returned to the Office of Financial Aid in a timely fashion.
