Brown Financial Aid Confirmation of Receipt

Is there a way to check via the portal if the Brown Financial Aid Office has received all the needed financial aid documents or do I need to contact them directly to verify?

The requirements section in the portal will usually provide relatively live updating of when the documents are received and the reqs are satisfied. It is under the Financial Aid tab – I would check there.

I can’t find what you are referring to. The only documents that appear in my portal are the ones required to apply to Brown, with none of the financial aid documents being shown. Can you be more specific about how I access it?
I appreciate the help

I applied ED and Brown did not have a way to check if they had received financial aid documents until a week before decisions came out, when they sent an email to everyone who applied for financial aid and had us set up an account where we could see all of the documents that they had or hadn’t received. It was strange because everywhere else it was on the same portal. Their were some rumors that it meant you got in if you got that email but it meant nothing in the end. They just send it to everyone. Don’t know why they did it so late.

The FA document status is available now on the portal as well.

@wings17 I don’t see anything about financial aid documents being received on my portal. Is it in the list with everything else?

Look for a link “Financial aid status” in the portal and click through.

@wings17 Hmmm… I only see the application status. Maybe it isn’t showing on my phone. I’ll try on a computer later.

Nope. Nothing there for financial aid status. Oh well. I know I sent everything in, so we’ll see what happens.

Strange. The link is a few lines above the application checklist. Clicking the link brings you to the FA checklist page.

I don’t see the ‘Financial Aid Status’ link link either

Mine is finally there today @LibbyOK but wasn’t until today…FWIW

@bigchoices2018 Thank you so much! Just looked, and mine shows up there now. Out of curiousity, did you or your student get offered an interview? Really appreciate your writing today with that link info.

@LibbyOK no problem! I had my interview late last week.
