Identity/Statement of Educational Purpose & High School Worksheet
Your 2020-21 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) was selected for review in a process called verification. The law says
that before awarding Federal Student Aid, we may ask you to confirm the information you 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 information may need to be corrected. You and your spouse (if
applicable) whose information was reported on the FAFSA must complete and sign this institutional verification document, attach any
required documents, and submit the form and other required documents to us. We may ask for additional information. If you have
questions about verification, contact us as soon as possible so that your financial aid will not be delayed.
