Professional Judgment may be available to assist students that have extenuating circumstances which warrant reevaluation of their eligibility for financial aid. The professional judgment process will be conducted on an individual basis and must be accompanied by the required documentation and approved by the Director of Financial Aid.

Students must be aware that Financial Aid is not automatically renewed each year. It is the sole responsibility of the student to reapply for SFA for the next award year. New Professions Technical Institute, Inc. reserves the right to request any additional information from the parent(s), legal guardian(s), spouse, and student information to assess the current COE and EFC of the student which may change due to possible changes in the student’s financial situation.

From time to time, the United States Department of Education will select a financial aid applicant for verification. What does this mean? Only that the Department wants to verify that the school is collecting correct information and that the applicant is giving correct information. This is a routine process and does not mean that you have been selected for any other reason. Do not be afraid of this process. It is not an audit or investigation, but simply a routine check on data.

March 14, 1986, the Department of Education published the Student Assistance General Provisions and the Pell Grant Program Verification of Applicant Information as final regulations in the FEDERAL REGISTER. These regulations are in effect for all Title IV Federal Financial Aid Programs for the award year.

New Professions Technical Institute, Inc. (NPTI) is providing you with the information you will need to understand and comply with the Verification Process. If you should have any additional questions beyond what is listed below, please ask your Financial Aid Counselor to explain the process and its requirements.

Verification is the process the Department of Education uses to check the accuracy and validity of the information that a student provides when applying for Federal Financial Aid.

Verification covers the following Title IV Federal Aid Programs:

1. Federal Pell Grants

2. Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants (FSEOG) 3. Federal Work-Study (FWS)

4. Federal Perkins Loan Program

5. Federal Family Educational Loan Programs Stafford/Plus/Direct

The selection of an application for verification review does not indicate that NPTI believes that the information you have provided is incorrect. The selection process is completed by the Processing Center for the Department of Education. Your application is subjected to a multiple audit screening process, and listed below are some of the common scenarios:

1 - Random Sample based on the review of information.

2 - Data checked for consistency and logic based on the common edits for each Item on the FAFSA

3 - Verification from the Social Security Administration

4 - Verification from the Selective Service Administration

5 - Verification from the Immigration and Naturalization Service

6 - Verification from the Veterans Affairs Administration

7- Prior FAFSA submissions to the Department of Education The verification process is required by Federal Regulations. New Professions Technical Institute, Inc. must adhere to these regulations and procedures to offer and disburse Federal Title IV Financial Assistance to our students. ***Until verification is completed on any student the Federal Financial Aid funds may not be disbursed. Any student that fails to complete Verification will lose their Aid award***

If the Department of Education selects your file for the completion of verification, you must complete the following forms and provide (NPTI) with the following information:

1. U.S. Department of Education Verification Worksheet for the award year.

2. Your complete Federal Statement of Earnings.

3. A statement of Non-Tax Filer Income, which indicates your earnings, that was not reported to the Internal Revenue Service.

4. Income earned from any business that you operated or own.

5. Any Social Security Benefits that you received.

6. Unemployment compensation received.

7. The number of family members that reside in and that are supported by your income.

IF YOU ARE:

• Not married.
• Have no dependents that you support.
• Aren't 24 years of age as of today?
• Aren't a veteran of the U.S. Armed Forces?

You will need to have your parent(s) submit the above information to qualify for Financial Assistance to attend your program.

Students that are selected to have their information verified are required to submit the requested information within 30 days from the date that the student is notified. If the information is delayed in being submitted to the Financial Aid office the AWARD that was given may not be available to the student, NPTI recognizes that it may be necessary to contact outside sources to collect the necessary documents and asks that the student keep the Financial Aid Office aware of any expected delays.

If you, the student fail to submit the required documentation for your file when requested, your financial aid award will be removed, and you will not be eligible to receive assistance from the Federal Title IV Aid Programs.

If the information you provide for verification is not the same as the information that you originally reported to the Financial Aid Officer and on the application for Federal Aid, a correction will be required. This correction application will produce a "NEW" award that may be higher or lower than the original award. Any reduction in your aid will be your responsibility to pay.

The Student’s Financial Aid is solely the responsibility of the student. If the Institution does not receive the Financial Aid funds while the student is in the school, the student is responsible for paying all tuition and fees related to attending New Professions Technical Institute, Inc.

New Professions Technical Institute has up to forty-five (45) days to collect any scheduled payment (s) from Title IV for students that have dropped or graduated.
