FAFSA Verification
Verification is the process used to confirm the data reported on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). We are pleased to announce we have established a partnership with Inceptia to expedite this federal verification process. Verification Gateway (VG) from Inceptia is an online portal to guide students and parents through verification.
If your FAFSA is selected for verification by the U.S. Department of Education, you will receive an email from VGCS@inceptia.org, or a postcard from Inceptia, containing Southern Connecticut State University’s unique website link to start the verification process.
We encourage you to begin the verification process within 7 days of receiving notification from Verification Gateway to ensure you receive your financial aid in time for payments. Failure to complete the verification process could result in the delay or denial of your financial aid.
