Conflicting Information
If the University has conflicting information concerning a student’s eligibility or has any reason
to believe a student’s application information is incorrect, the University will resolve such
discrepancies before disbursing student financial aid funds. If discrepancies are discovered after
disbursing student financial aid funds, the University will reconcile the conflicting information
and require the student to repay any funds for which he or she was ineligible. Examples of
conflicting information may include, but are not limited to, the following:
o Social Security numbers
o Date of birth
o Legal name
o Discrepant tax data (including whether or not the student/parent was required to file a tax
return)
o Household size or marital status
o Citizenship status
Other Resources
Students are required to disclose financial assistance that will be paid by a third party on their
behalf. When a portion of a student’s cost of attendance is waived or paid by another source,
other than federal financial aid, this is considered other resources. Examples of other resources
include, but are not limited to, the following:
o External grants and scholarships
o University grants and scholarships
o Tuition assistance
o Military tuition benefits
o University tuition discounts and waivers
o University administration tuition and/or student account adjustments
o Income from insurance programs that pay for the student’s education
o Private loans
