FAFSA ALERTS AND IMPORTANT DEADLINES

All financial aid awards for the 2006-2007 year must be accepted manually through Panthersoft; no awards will be accepted automatically this year by the Financial Aid Office.

2006-2007 Important Information:
FIU is now participating in the Quality Assurance Program (QAP) of the Federal Department of Education. Those students that were previously selected for the 2006-2007 Federal Verification process are no longer required to submit the required documents (1040 Tax Returns & Verification Worksheets only) that were being requested. The required documents have been waived. Students selected for the new QAP will receive a letter from the Financial Aid Office with specific instructions.

Please keep in mind, students who were not previously selected for verification cannot be selected under the QAP. Also, a student who has gone through the verification process could be selected again under the QAP and may be required to submit additional information.
