You are Not Currently Eligible for Financial Aid for 2020-2021
Dear $SUBSCRIBER.FIRSTNAME,
You have been selected by the federal government for a process called verification.
Please note: You will not be offered financial aid until the verification process is complete.
If you do not complete the verification process, you are responsible for making your first payment regardless of your financial aid. The University cancels the registration of students who have not made sufficient payment by the first payment due date of the semester. In order to avoid cancellation of your fall 2020 classes, please allow sufficient time to meet the August 7 payment due date.
Click here for directions to access the list of required documents via CougarNet. Typical items required for Verification can include the 2020-2021 Institutional Verification Form, 2018 W-2's from employment, as well as a 2018 IRS Federal Tax Return or Federal Tax Return Transcript. The 2018 Federal Tax Return is a signed copy of the 1040, 1040A or 1040EZ. Be sure the taxes are signed and complete. If you cannot locate a 2018 Federal Tax Return, you can submit a 2018 Tax Return Transcript.
You may choose one of the methods below to request your 2018 federal tax return transcript.
- Print a copy from irs.gov
