What is verification? The U. S. Department of Education selects approximately 30% of all FAFSA applicants for a process called verification. FAFSAs selected for verification may include those with inaccurate or incomplete information, although most are selected at random. If you are selected, you will receive an e-mail with a link to ITCC’s Verification Processing Center, where you will be asked to complete a verification worksheet online and provide income documentation. Other types of information may also be required, including documentation of your spouse’s or parents’ information. Our Verification Processing Center will review your verification worksheet information and income documentation, comparing it with information you submitted on the FAFSA. It is to the student’s benefit to respond to and complete the verification process as quickly as possible because no packaging, awarding, and disbursement of aid will occur until verification is completed. Participation in the verification process is not optional; it is a federal requirement. Failure to comply with and complete the verification process may result in cancellation of any financial aid already awarded. If there are any differences found between information reported in the FAFSA and actual figures on tax returns and other required documentation, adjustments may be made to your award. Where do I find required forms? If you are selected for Verification, you will receive an e-mail from ITCC, directing you to a link from Campus Connect into our Verification Processing Center. A list of required documents (and instructions for providing each document) will be presented to you online. Ivy Tech Community College may also select students for verification. Those students will be contacted with specific information and instructions about any documentation that is required. If you need assistance with Campus Connect or any of our online services, the Helpdesk can assist you. The fastest way to get assistance is to submit a problem ticket. you will find a link to submit a ticket on the Campus Connect login page at https://cc.ivytech.edu. you can also call us at 1-877-IVy-TeCH (1-877-489-8324). Quick Guide for Financial Aid Verification How long does the verification process take and how will I know when the verification process is completed? After all required documentation has been submitted, regular verification can take approximately two weeks. If there are other circumstances requiring special consideration, the process can take longer. After the review process is complete, the student’s financial aid awards will be generated. The student will receive notification via their Ivy Tech email account when award information is available in the Award for Aid year page of my Ivy Tech accessible through Campus Connect. Remember it is the student’s responsibility to submit the required paperwork in a timely manner. Delays which may occur due to late submission of documents can include but are not limited to: • no financial aid funds may be credited or disbursed until the verification process is complete and your eligibility is determined. • may postpone you and your family’s ability to finalize your plans on how to pay for your college education. • Financial aid cannot be posted against your Ivy Tech bill until verification is completed. This may result in you having to pay the entire bill when due, late fees, and cancellation of registration. Changes which may occur due to verification: • Student status change may affect residency, dependent/ independent status, and other qualifiers for eligibility. • Change in eFC may affect eligibility requirements for receiving Pell and other grants as well as other types of aid. https://cc.ivytech.edu
