Step 5 – Additional Information
After your FAFSA is processed, MCC will be sent the information
electronically. For electronic filers, the data is usually received
in 1 to 2 weeks. For those who completed a paper FAFSA, the data
is usually received in about 4-8 weeks.
Once your FAFSA data is received, you may be required to submit
additional information to the MCC Financial Aid Office. Additional
information is often required for one or more of the following reasons:
Database Mismatch
– Your FAFSA data is matched against various federal databases (Social
Security, Selective Service, Dept. of Veteran Affairs, etc…) to
make sure you meet the basic eligibility requirements for federal
financial aid. If it cannot be determined that you meet the basic
eligibility requirements, you may be asked to submit any of the
following:
Copy of your Social Security Card.
Copy of your birth certificate.
Proof of U.S. citizenship.
Selective Service registration confirmation.
Copy of your alien registration card.
Proof of being a veteran of the armed forces.
Verification – One
third of all federal aid applicants are randomly selected for a
process called “verification”. If you are selected for this process,
you will be required to submit the following to the MCC Financial
Aid Office:
Verification Worksheet
Copy of student’s Federal tax return
Copy of parent’s Federal tax return (Dependent students only)
Please be aware that all errors, mismatches, and verification issues
must be resolved before your financial aid can be finalized and
applied to your account.
