What if my familys financial situation changes after I apply for Financial Aid, or it differs from the tax return?
If you or your parents’ financial situation is different than what is listed on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), you can complete the Professional Judgment form. This form allows you to list how your situation has changed, and document these changes. Common changes are: a loss of employment, reduced employment, loss of untaxed income (such as Social Security benefits), or having one or more of your parents attending college. Please contact the Financial Aid professional judgment counselor if you have any specific questions regarding your situation.
