Selection of Students for Verification

The ED selects Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) for verification. In addition, ED or Del Mar College may select a student for verification if the information submitted appears to be incorrect or fraudulent. If you have been selected for a process called verification, Del Mar College will be comparing information from your FAFSA with your (and your spouse’s, if you are married) and/or your parents’ Income Tax Return Transcript, or with W-2 forms or other financial documents. Federal Regulations state we have the right to ask you for this information before awarding Federal aid.
