How to Successfully Submit Documents


How to Submit Documents Without Printing

  • Option 2: Convert the document to a JPEG file and complete and sign using Microsoft Paint.

How to View Submitted Documents in Your Portal

  • Allow up to 48 business hours for your item to be marked as received on your Self-Service account. Allow up to 2 weeks for your item to be fully reviewed by a counselor and processed.
  • Incomplete forms will be marked as incomplete on your Self-Service account and will be requested on your account again until a complete form is submitted.

Other Tips

  • Include your ID number on all documents for easy identification purposes.
  • Do not send items that have not been requested. We are required to review every item you submit, so turning in an unrequested item will require us to verify your FAFSA data.
