No. According to the Department of Education (ED), if the school has no reason to dispute the authenticity of the document, then the school can accept the document to confirm a student's Title IV eligibility. For Title IV purposes, the financial aid administrator is reviewing the document to see if it looks authentic and not like a forgery, rather than focusing on signature requirements.

NASFAA's Financial Aid Night Toolkit has recently been updated with information for the 2023-24 academic year and is now available to assist NASFAA members in conducting or providing support for financial aid night presentations. In the toolkit you'll find a slideshow designed to give students and families a basic understanding of financial aid concepts, sources of financial aid, and the application process for federal student aid. The toolkit also contains a guide to planning and conducting a financial aid night, as well as updated versions of supplemental student and parent handouts to help you give a compelling and informative presentation. The content may be presented in person or virtually.

Creating, implementing, or overhauling a policies and procedures (P&P) manual is one of those tasks on a financial aid office's to-do list that directors often struggle to allocate time for. With seemingly constantly changing federal student aid regulations, aid offices often find themselves scrambling to update their P&P manual at the last second. That's where Blue Icon Advisors can come in to help, with a team of independent consultants who have a background in creating and reviewing P&Ps.

Federal Student Aid (FSA) from 2–3 p.m. ET this Wednesday, September 28, will be hosting a webinar focusing on updates to the 2023-24 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA®) form. According to FSA the webinar is intended for students, parents, and college access professionals who are interested in what's new with the 2023–24 FAFSA® form, as well as FAFSA updates. There will also be an opportunity for participants to ask questions. Interested? Be sure to register now!
