Conflicting Information

If the College has conflicting information concerning a student’s eligibility or has any reason to believe a student’s application information is incorrect, the College will resolve such discrepancies before disbursing student financial aid funds. If discrepancies are discovered after disbursing student financial aid funds, the College will reconcile the conflicting information and require the student to repay any funds for which he or she was ineligible. If the student is a dependent student based on FAFSA definitions, conflicting information regarding the parents must be resolved as well. Examples of conflicting information may include, but are not limited to, the following:

Social Security numbers
Date of birth
Legal name
Discrepant tax data (including whether the student/parent was required to file a tax return)
Household size or marital status
Citizenship status
