Hey, my FAFSA got selected for Verification and 5 schools emailed me a week or two ago to supply them with additional documentation.
I am in the process of finishing that by this Thursday, but I am kind of freaking out because the national deadline for a lot of schools is May 1 so what if I don’t receive my financial aid package by then from either of the schools? They knew that it would take a while for them to process considering the plethora of things they have to do during peak season such as this, so why did they wait this long during peak season to ask me for my verification? Is the FAFSA already processed when they ask you for financial documentation and all they need to do is allocate the funds once they verify the info? I am kind of worried. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!
