Verification is a process to confirm that the information reported on the FAFSA form is accurate. Students are selected for verification at random by the U.S. Department of Education. A note will be listed on the FAFSA Submission Summary if a student is selected for verification.
Students receive notification from Salem State that they have been selected for verification. By logging into their Navigator account, students can see the requested documents and how to submit the information on their To-Do List.
Students will not be awarded financial aid until they have completed the verification process.
