Federal Verification Worksheet (Student) 2024

Federal Verification Worksheet

Your FAFSA application was selected by the U.S. Department of Education for review in a process called “Federal Verification.”

The Office of Financial Aid must compare your FAFSA with the information you provide on this worksheet and possibly other financial documents.

The Office of Financial Aid cannot make any federal financial aid payments available to you or process a student loan request until all verification requirements have been met and the necessary corrections have been made.

If you have any questions, contact the Office of Financial Aid at financialaid@masters.edu or 661.362.2290
