Federal Student Aid Eligibility

Colleges use your Student Aid Index (SAI) to determine how much financial aid you could receive if you attended their school. Financial
aid may include grants (free funds that do not have to be repaid), work-study (paid part-time employment), and/or low-interest loans
(borrowed funds that must be repaid). Your SAI may change due to verification or if you update or correct your FAFSA information.
Your financial aid package could also include other federal, state, or institutional aid. Your school’s financial aid office will tell you
the specific types and amounts of aid you can receive. For more information about the SAI and the types and sources of aid, go to
StudentAid.gov.
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) offers tax benefits to help you maximize your college savings or recover some of the money you
spend on tuition or loan interest. For more information, visit StudentAid.gov/resources/tax-benefits.
Review the checked boxes.

Federal Student Loan Summary

The table below shows the total amounts of federal (Title IV) student loans that you owe, as reported by your loan servicers. Confirm that these amounts
are correct by signing in to StudentAid.gov and viewing the details for each loan. If you feel the amounts below are incorrect, or you have questions about
a loan, contact the loan servicer indicated on StudentAid.gov. You can find general information about each loan type below at StudentAid.gov/loans.
The “Subsidized” and “Unsubsidized” amounts include those portions of any consolidation loans you have. If there is an amount listed for Federal Family
Education Loan (FFEL) Program “Unallocated Consolidation Loans,” we could not determine whether those balances were subsidized or unsubsidized.
Remember, you are responsible for repaying all of the amounts that you borrow, plus interest. As a general rule, with an assumed interest rate of 5%,
the monthly payment amount over a 10-year repayment period would be approximately $10.61 for every $1,000 that you borrowed. Of course, your
actual repayment amount will depend upon how much you borrow, the interest rate when you enter repayment, and the length of your repayment term.

FTI Consent and Approval				

Do not submit

Federal Tax Information (FTI) Consent and Approval

The student and all contributors must provide consent and approval for their tax information to be transferred to the FAFSA form in order for the
student’s eligibility for federal student aid to be calculated.
I consent to the disclosure of information about me, as described below, and further affirmatively approve of the receipt and use of my federal tax
information (FTI) and to the U.S. Department of Education’s (Department’s) redisclosure of my FTI, as described below. By accepting within this
summary, I consent to and affirmatively approve of, as applicable, the following:
1.	 The Department may disclose my Social Security number (SSN)/Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN), last name, date of birth, unique identifier, the tax
year for which FTI is required, and the date and timestamp of my approval for the use of my FTI in determining eligibility by the Department for which
approval is provided to the U.S. Department of the Treasury, Internal Revenue Service (IRS). I understand that in response to such a request from the
Department, the IRS shall then disclose my FTI to “authorized persons” (i.e., specifically designated officers and employees of the Department and its
contractors (as defined in 26 U.S.C. § 6103(l)(13)(E)) for the purpose of determining eligibility for, and the amount of, federal student aid under a program
authorized under subpart 1 of part A, part C, or part D of Title IV of the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended, for myself or an applicant for federal
student aid who has requested that I share my FTI on their Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA ®) form.
2.	 Authorized persons at the U.S. Department of Education and its contractors (as defined in 26 U.S.C. § 6103(l)(13)(E)) may use my FTI for the
purpose of determining the eligibility for, and amount of, federal student aid under a program authorized under subpart 1 of part A, part C, or part D of
Title IV of the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended, for myself or a FAFSA applicant who has requested that I share my FTI on the FAFSA form.
3.	 The Department may redisclose my FTI received from the IRS pursuant to 26 U.S.C. § 6103(l)(13)(D)(iii) to the following entities solely for the use
in the application, award, and administration of financial aid:
•	 Institutions of higher education (IHEs) participating in the federal student aid programs authorized under subpart 1 of part A, part C, or part D of
Title IV of the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended;
•	 State higher education agencies;
•	 Scholarship organizations designated prior to December 19, 2019, by the Secretary of Education; and
•	 Contractors of IHEs and state higher education agencies to administer aspects of the institution’s or State agency’s activities for the application,
award, and administration of such financial aid.
4.	 The Department may redisclose my FTI to another applicant’s FAFSA form(s) for which I elect to participate. By accepting an invitation and
affirmation to participate in another individual’s FAFSA form, my FTI will be redisclosed to the additional application. I understand that I may decline
an invitation to participate, which will prevent the transfer of my FTI to that FAFSA form.
By consenting and providing my affirmative approval, I further understand that:
1.	 My consent and affirmative approval are required, as a condition of my eligibility or the eligibility of a FAFSA applicant who has requested that I
share my FTI on their FAFSA form, for Federal student aid under a program authorized under subpart 1 of part A, part C, or part D of Title IV of the
Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended, even if I did not file a U.S. federal tax return.
2.	 I am providing my written consent for the redisclosure of my FTI by the Department to, including but not limited to, IHEs, state higher education
agencies, designated scholarship organizations, their respective contractors and auditors, other family members participating in the FAFSA form,
and the Office of Inspector General, under 26 U.S.C. § 6103(l)(13)(D), and, with my further express written consent obtained by an IHE, the
redisclosure of FAFSA information pursuant to the terms and conditions of 20 U.S.C. § 1098h(c).
3.	 Any FTI received from the IRS at a later date shall supersede any manually entered financial or income information on the FAFSA form.
4.	 The Department may request updated FTI from the IRS once my consent is provided. If FTI has changed (e.g., an amended tax return filed with
revised information), then eligibility for, and amounts of, federal, state, and institutional financial aid may change.
5.	 If I do not consent to the redisclosure of my FTI to IHEs, state higher education agencies, designated scholarship organizations, and their
respective contractors, the Department will be unable to calculate my eligibility for federal student aid or the eligibility of a FAFSA applicant who
has requested that I share my FTI on their FAFSA form.
