FAQ - What should I do after I submit my FAFSA form?

Question
What should I do after I submit my FAFSA form?
Answer

The Federal Processor will send you an email when your FAFSA form has been processed with your FAFSA Submission Summary. Review the information for accuracy and ensure the University of Arizona (school code 001083) is listed as one of your schools to receive the FAFSA data. 

Once you’ve been admitted and we have received a copy of your FAFSA, then our team will begin working on your financial aid offer.

Please note: If the information on your FAFSA needs to be corrected, please log in to your studentaid.gov account and select fafsa.gov “Make FAFSA Corrections". Once our office has the corrected data and you have been admitted to the university, the Office of Scholarships and Financial Aid will begin creating a financial aid offer.
