The Student Aid Report (SAR) you receive after your FAFSA is processed will indicate if your FAFSA has been selected for verification. Roughly 30% of all FAFSAs filed are selected for verification. 蜜桃影像 is required to collect documentation to verify what has been reported on the FAFSA. The Office of Student Financial Aid will notify you of what documentation to submit to us.

A: Verification is a process by which schools are required by federal law to collect documentation to verify the information reported on the FAFSA. Schools complete this process by requesting a variety of documents such as Federal IRS Tax Return Transcripts, verification worksheet, birth certificate, social security card, U.S. passport, etc.

Students are notified through their eMarq email account of any documents they are required to submit. You can also view your CheckMarq 鈥�To Do list" for any required verification documents.

Be sure to comply with all requests for documentation by the deadlines provided. Financial aid is offered on a first-come first-served basis. To be considered for all available financial aid, continuing students must submit requested documents within 30 day of the initial document request. Aid may be reduced and/or eliminated for applicants whose documents are received beyond the 30 days.

A: It typically takes 2-3 weeks to complete verification, after all completed documentation is received.

A: The tax return information that is being transferred into the FAFSA form when you use the Direct Data Exchange is coming directly from the tax return you filed with the IRS. 蜜桃影像 will have access to the transferred information, we will follow up with you directly if we notice any issues or need additional information. The tax year transferred is based on the FAFSA filed, the 2024-25 FAFSA uses the 2022 tax information.

A: No. Information you transfer via the IRS Data Retrieval Tool cannot be changed. Remember, the information transferred is coming from the federal tax return and should not need to be changed. Amended tax information will transfer from the IRS if you filed a 1040X and it was processed prior to filing the FAFSA. If your financial situation has changed contact Marquette Central to discuss a possible Special and Unusual Circumstance appeal.

A: All FAFSA contributors, even those who do not file taxes, should give consent to use the Direct Data Exchange (DDX). In situations where the DDX cannot retrieve tax information: submit a Tax Return Transcript ordered from the IRS, or submit a signed copy of their IRS form 1040 with applicable schedules. 

• A tax return transcript can be ordered, free of charge, from the IRS online, by phone, or a paper request form. For instructions see tab #9 on the Guidelines for the Verification Process 
• If you are unable to use the other methods submit a signed copy of your IRS form 1040 with applicable schedules. Applicable schedules include 1, 2, and 3 if filed. The 1040 must be signed, even if it was filed electronically. 

For additional information on submitting tax information see Guidelines for the Verification Process.

A: Tax filers who believe they are victims of identity theft may call Identity Protection Specialized Unit (IPSU)鈥檚 toll-free number, (800) 908-4490, or go to the ID theft website on irs.gov.  After the IPSU authenticates the tax filer鈥檚 identity, the tax filer can request that the IRS mail to the tax filer an alternate paper tax transcript, known as the TRDBV (Transcript Data Base View). After receiving the TRDBV the following needs to be submitted to our office:

• A signed copy of the IRS alternate paper tax transcript (TRDBV)
• A signed and dated statement regarding the identity theft and attesting the filer notified the IRS about the theft.

Keep in mind that identity theft will delay access to tax information. Access to this information generally occurs 8-11 weeks after the IRS has received the tax return information; however, resolution of IRS-related identity theft can take up to 180 days.

A: If you provided consent for the Direct Data Exchange (DDX) on the 2024-25 FAFSA, and would not have filed taxes in Puerto Rico any other country, you are no longer required to submit an IRS letter of non-filing. For the Verification process: on the verification worksheet check the appropriate box that you did not file taxes and submit all 2022 W-2s and/or wage statements. 

 If you are a non-Tax filer who would file taxes in Puerto Rico or a foreign country: request submit appropriate non-filing documentation from a relevant tax authority with all 2022 wage and/or income statements. 

A: Sometimes, when reviewing documents submitted, the Office of Student Financial Aid needs clarification of the information submitted, additional information, there is conflicting information between the FAFSA information and the verification documents, or there is conflicting information between FAFSAs filed. If one or more of these occurs the Office of Student Financial Aid asks for additional information through a Supplemental Information Request Form.

Most Supplemental Information Request Forms are sent though DocuSign and will be completed and signed digitally. Depending on the information needed, the document will be sent to the student鈥檚 eMarq account and/or the parent email from the FAFSA to be completed and signed. You may receive more than one email, depending on how much information we need, you must review and complete all requests. If a DocuSign email was lost contact Marquette Central to have it resent.

In some situations, we will mail a paper copy of the Supplemental Information Request Form to you. You will know the paper form was sent when you see the Supplemental Information Request Form on your To Do List. If you did not receive the original Supplemental Information Request, or need a duplicate, contact Marquette Central and the PDF will be sent to your eMarq account.

A: Every student's situation is different. Contact Marquette Central for guidance.

A: The Department of Education sets (i.e., processing fees) for each loan every year. If the fees for your loan are scheduled to change and you have not completed all the steps to receive your loan, Marquette is required to cancel any loan that has not paid. Loans can be reinstated but will be subject to the new origination fees. Therefore, it is important to complete all the loan steps as quickly as possible. To review the terms of a particular loan, visit the Loans webpage.

A: Begin by searching for scholarships through organizations in your local area (e.g., religious groups, Elks, Rotary Club, Jaycees), high school guidance counselor, public library, and internet scholarship search engines.  Check into whether your parent鈥檚 or guardian鈥檚 employer provides scholarships to their employees' children for college.

  Marquette Central
  Attn:  Scholarship Assistant
  PO Box 1881
  Milwaukee WI 53201-1881

A: You are required to notify us of additional financial assistance that is not listed on your offer notification. Do not assume that your scholarship/fellowship/assistantship/VA benefit sponsor automatically informs our office of your outside aid.

• If you have remaining need, the scholarship will go towards your unmet need first.
• We may be required to modify your financial aid offer if you are receiving outside aid. If a financial aid adjustment occurs, an email will be sent to your eMarq account.

A: Whether you need to sign the private scholarship check depends on the following:

• If the check is made payable to You and 蜜桃影像, then you must endorse the private scholarship check.
• When the check is made payable to 蜜桃影像, your endorsement on the check is not required.

If your signature is required on a scholarship check Marquette Central will send an email to your eMarq account asking you to stop by the office to endorse the check.

A: Marquette must honor the donor鈥檚 specifications when indicated.

• If the scholarship donor has specified how the scholarship is to be applied, Marquette must apply it accordingly.
• If the donor has not specified how the scholarship is to be applied, it is automatically split evenly between the fall and spring semesters.

A: Private scholarship checks are processed daily. During the very busy months of January and August, please allow more time for processing due to of the volume of checks received.  You can view updates to your financial aid offer and your student account through CheckMarq.

A: It depends. Students who apply for financial aid may receive additional financial assistance. A Financial Aid Notification (FAN) will be sent electronically to all students via their eMarq e-mail account and will detail the financial assistance available.

A: This scholarship is renewable for up to 8 semesters of undergraduate study provided the recipient  with his/her respective college and is enrolled as a full-time student.

A: No. Marquette scholarships are offered on a per-semester basis. You are not able to receive two semesters of scholarship eligibility at one time.

A: You are not able to use a Marquette undergraduate scholarship when you are enrolled as a graduate or professional student. You may be eligible for new scholarships as a graduate/professional student. Please contact your college for these opportunities.

A: Yes, students may utilize their P猫re Marquette Scholarship during the summer term. However, we caution students to think carefully before making this choice as the scholarship will be prorated and this will count as one of their 8 semesters of eligibility. Students will not be allowed to have their prorated scholarship reversed nor will they be eligible to use the unused portion of their scholarship later. Additional information is available on the Summer Financial Aid page.

A: If you are withdrawing after the close of the add/drop period, you will continue to receive your full scholarship and financial aid for the current semester. If you are enrolled full-time the following semester, you will continue to receive your scholarship(s) and financial aid.

However, a component of the Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy requires undergraduate students to complete 67% of the cumulative credit hours attempted to remain in good standing and remain eligible for financial aid. This applies to all students who receive institutional, state and Federal Title IV and Title VII funds administered by the university.

A: In summer, students are charged a lesser tuition rate and may receive a prorated P猫re Marquette, All-In Marquette College Completion Scholarship, College Competition or Dean鈥檚 Scholarship. This means, the scholarship is adjusted to a lower amount based on the lower tuition rate and number of credits enrolled in. Students should not expect to receive the same amount as they normally receive as a full-time student during the regular academic year. Likewise, if a senior is taking less than 12 credits in their final semester at Marquette, they also may receive a prorated scholarship based on the lower tuition rate. Adjusted scholarships are based on the percentage of their scholarship to tuition in that academic year.

A: Yes. Any money received as the result of work (i.e., Work Study, temporary employment on or off campus, some fellowships, etc.) is considered taxable income. You will be asked to file an Employee鈥檚 Withholding Allowance Certificate (W-4 Form) and you will receive a Wage and Tax Statement (W-2 Form) each calendar year. Your taxable earnings from Federal Work Study and work under a Cooperative Education Program (Co-Op) must be reported on your FAFSA.
