Step 1
Get a PIN, a personal identification number. A PIN lets you apply, sign your online FAFSA, make corrections to your application information, and more all online.
BOTH THE STUDENT AND PARENT (if required) WILL NEED A SEPARATE PIN NUMBER!
Collect the documents needed to apply, including income tax returns and W-2 forms (and other records of income). Use the link below for details on what will be required.
If you have not filed the required tax returns at the time you apply? You may estimate the tax information, apply, and correct information later. You will be responsible for repaying any aid awarded with incorrect data.
Step 3
Complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).
You may save your incomplete application until you are ready to submit to FAFSA. TVCC' s school code 003572. This gives us access to your processed report.
Review your Student Aid Report (SAR) the result of your FAFSA application. If necessary, make changes or corrections and resubmit your SAR for reprocessing. Your SAR will contain your Expected Family Contribution (EFC). This number will be used to determine your eligibility for federal student aid.
TVCC's PRIORITY PROCESSING DEADLINE is July 1 for Fall, November 1 for Spring and April 15 for Summer. This deadline refers to documents required by TVCC not just submitting a FAFSA application.
Submitting required documents by the TVCC deadline insures your eligibility will be determined in time for registration.
If your application is selected for verification, you will need to provide a copy of tax returns and other documents, as appropriate. Be sure to meet the TVCC deadline, or you will need to pay at registration, then get reimbursed if you qualify.
Whether you're selected for verification or not, you must complete a Financial Aid Information Sheet and a Financial Aid Policy Acknowledgement form. Download these from our Forms and Applications page. We will also need copies of transcripts from all other colleges attended and GED scores (if applicable).
All students: Contact the financial aid office if you have any questions about the aid being offered. If you have not received an award letter before registration, contact the financial aid office to check your status. |
