Being selected for verification is very common, don't panic! Verification is a random selection by the Department of Education to spot-check information on the FAFSA and verify it for accuracy.
Not everyone is selected for verification, and not everyone has to verify the same items.
If you have been selected for verification, Herzing must obtain additional information to process your financial aid application. Please log into the Financial Aid Site using your individual Username and Password to view the required documents. The Financial Aid Site will list the status of your documents, including those needed for verification.

In some cases, a credit (more funds than what is needed for tuition and fees) can appear on your student account, and your answers on this form tell us what you would like us to do with that credit.
Answering "Yes" to these questions allows Herzing to apply a credit that may occur on your student account towards certain future charges. It will not affect your stipend, it will just prevent a potential payment plan. It also allows Herzing to reduce your overall loan balance by returning federal loans no longer needed due to a schedule change or revision back to the lender. This will reduce your overall loan debt.
Answering "no" to the questions tells us that you wish us to send any credit back to you, regardless of any future charges. This option may require additional loan funding or a payment plan in the future to pay for uncovered charges.

The U.S. Department of Education has rules to prevent fraud and abuse in Federal Aid Programs by identifying students with "unusual enrollment histories". Unusual enrollment history is when a student enrolls at a school, receives federal student aid, fails to complete any classes and then goes to another school.
Some students with an unusual enrollment history have legitimate reasons for attending multiple schools. However, the enrollment history requires the Financial Aid Office to review your file to determine future Federal financial aid eligibility. If selected by the Department of Education, this must be resolved before you will receive financial aid.

The FAFSA uses what is called Prior/Prior year tax information. That means the taxes used for the FAFSA aren't from last year but the year before that. For example, the 2023-2024 FAFSA uses the 2021 taxes, not the 2022 taxes.
Due to the IRS allowing for extensions, the previous year's tax information is sometimes unavailable. Using prior prior year will allow more students and families to complete the FAFSA using income information imported directly from the IRS because the taxes will have already been filed and processed.

For Example, if you were married in 2022 and the FAFSA requires 2020 taxes, you still are required to add your spouse's information from the 2020 tax year.
If you are expecting a child and you will provide at least 50% of the support for that child, you can answer 'Yes' to the question on the FAFSA stating, "Do you now have鈥攐r will you have鈥攃hildren who will receive more than half (50%) of their support from you". You can update your FAFSA to 'yes' after it is determining that you are pregnant.
If your marital status changes, you must speak to the financial aid office to determine whether you may update your current FAFSA form.
If you have not completed the FAFSA, your Married/Divorced status is based on the day you fill out the FAFSA.

Funding Options
What are my funding options?
Scholarships are a great way to help fund your education! There are many different options out there for students, and it can be difficult to navigate the scholarships there. Here are a couple of tips for searching for scholarships:
1. Never pay money to apply for a scholarship.
2. Search for scholarships in your field of study and anything unique to yourself as a student.
3. Ask your employer if they offer any scholarship or reimbursement program.
4. Contact local organizations you are involved with: religious organizations, local corporations, ethnic organizations, and community or government organizations.

The terms forgiveness, cancellation, or discharge mean roughly the same thing, but they are used differently. They mean that you are no longer required to repay some or all of your loan.
If you鈥檙e no longer required to make payments on your loans due to your job, this is generally called forgiveness or cancellation.
If you鈥檙e no longer required to make payments on your loans due to other circumstances, such as a total and permanent disability or the closure of the school where you received your loans, this is generally called discharge.

Refund/Stipend
I have questions about a refund or stipend
A refund happens when financial aid (like federal loans or grants) is returned to the government, your school, or another funding source. This usually happens if:
- You withdraw from the university.
- When your tuition or fees go down, you may not need as much aid, so the extra money is sent back.
Good news: You don鈥檛 owe a refund that has been sent back to the government, and no interest or fees are charged on it.
A stipend is when extra funds are released directly to you鈥攗sually because your financial aid exceeds your tuition and fees.
- Stipends are typically issued within 14 days of a credit appearing on your account.
- You can check your account balance and stipend status anytime through your Student Account in MyHU.

If you need to leave school (withdraw) because life happens, we understand that. If this happens to you, we will perform what is called a Federal Return to Title IV Calculation.

However, if you need to take the break after the semester starts, we will take the number of days you have attended the classes and apply the tuition and fees based on the number of days, not the whole semester.
