CORRECTIONS

You may also make corrections on the Web. This option will allow you to make all changes except to your social security number.   You may make changes to your application from the www.fafsa.edu.gov website. Choose the "Make Corrections to a Processed FAFSA" link. You must have a PIN in order to access your record. This PIN also serves as your signature. A parent signature will be required only when parental data is changed on the application.

Also, you may be asked to supply additional or supplementary information to your financial aid office.  WKU will review an electronic version of your SAR to see if additional or supplementary information is needed.  If additional information is needed, a Missing Information Letter (MIL) will be mailed to you.  

SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES

In some cases it is necessary to take into account circumstances that might affect the amount you and your family are expected to contribute toward your education.  These circumstances could include the death of a parent or spouse, recent unemployment, retirement of a parent, loss of income such as social security, or a family's unusual medical expenses or tuition expenses.

If such conditions apply to you or your family please come by our department and pick up a Special Circumstance Form.  If you are out of town, you may also contact our office by phone or email fa.questions@wku.edu and the form will be mailed to you. Be sure to include the Student ID or social security number in your email.
