Your 2020-2021 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) was selected for review in a process called verification. Federal guidelines
dictate that, before awarding federal student aid, we may ask you to confirm the information reported on your FAFSA. To verify that you
provided correct information, we will compare your FAFSA with the information on this institutional verification document and with any
other required documents. If there are differences, your FAFSA may be corrected. The student and the parent whose information was
reported on the FAFSA (if dependent) must complete and sign this form, attach any required documents, and submit the information to the
Financial Aid Office (FAO). If you have questions, please contact the FAO promptly to avoid delays in the processing of your financial aid.

1. Verify High School Completion Status
Provide one of the following documents that will indicate the student’s high school completion status when the student begins
college in 2020-2021:
A copy of the student’s high school diploma.
A copy of the student’s final official high school transcript that shows the date when the diploma was awarded.
A state certificate or transcript received by a student after the student passed a State-authorized examination (GED test,
HiSET, TASC, or other State-authorized examination) that the State recognizes as the equivalent of a high school diploma.
For students who completed secondary education in a foreign country, a copy of the “secondary school leaving
certificate” or other similar document.
An academic transcript that indicates the student successfully completed at least a two-year program that is acceptable
for full credit toward a bachelor’s degree.
For a homeschooled student in a state where state law requires the student to obtain a secondary school completion
credential for homeschool (other than a high school diploma or its recognized equivalent), a copy of that credential.
For a homeschooled student in a state where state law does not require the student to obtain a secondary school
completion credential for homeschool (other than a high school diploma or its recognized equivalent), a transcript or the
equivalent, signed by the student's parent or guardian, that lists the secondary school courses the student completed
and includes a statement that the student successfully completed a secondary school education in a homeschool setting.
