Complete and submit to Federal
Student Aid Programs the “2008-2009 Free Application
for Federal Student Aid/FAFSA.” You may have already
received a Renewal FAFSA in the mail. If not, this
application is available online at www.fafsa.ed.gov
and in our office. You will need your and your
spouse's 2006 Federal Income Tax Return forms when
completing this application. Be sure to enter the
L-R Title IV code 002941 in Step Six. It takes
approximately four to six weeks to process this
form.
Keep copies of your FAFSA and
the resulting Student Aid Report (SAR), your and
your spouse's Federal Income Tax Return forms
(including all schedules and W2s) readily available.
If your SAR is selected for verification, our office
is required to collect copies of these documents for
your financial aid file. Our office may send you a
letter requesting these and possibly other forms,
please submit them to our office within ten
days. Failure to respond to a letter requesting
additional information may jeopardize your
eligibility for aid.
Using the results of the above
steps, our office will determine what types and
amounts of financial aid you are eligible to
receive. This information will be sent to you in
your financial aid package. Read all information
provided in the financial aid package and respond
within twenty days. Failure to respond to a
financial aid package may result in the cancellation
or adjustment of funds offered.
