FAFSA
The FAFSA opens on October 1 and must be submitted each year for students to be considered for federal, state, and some institutional financial aid. The FAFSA determines your Student Aid Index (SAI). This is used to help determine your financial need and to award financial aid such as grants, loans, and student employment.
- Make sure to add our school code (003194) to your FAFSA so that George Fox can receive it. It will take 1-3 business days for us to receive it after you file. (We will receive incoming student FAFSAs once they are admitted to the university.)
Access the FAFSA form here. Make sure to create an FSA ID and password when you get to this page (one can be obtained at this link). Write these down, as you’ll need them again later! Have questions about the FAFSA? Visit this page.
FAFSA Verification Worksheets
Every year, the U.S. Department of Education selects about 22% of those who complete the FAFSA for verification. This doesn’t mean you did something wrong; they use verification to confirm that the household and tax data reported on your FAFSA is accurate.
In order to receive your offered financial aid, you must complete the verification process. George Fox reserves the right to select a student for verification who was not federally selected.
All verification forms can be submitted online or mailed. Please make sure to complete the forms corresponding to the correct aid year.
Here are instructions and forms you will need if you are selected:

FERPA Release of Information
George Fox takes your confidential information seriously. The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) of 1974 protects the privacy of students’ confidential financial aid and educational records. There is some information that is not confidential under FERPA laws, but George Fox still needs students’ written consent to release those records.
Stafford Loan Entrance and Exit Counseling
Watch our tutorial video about studentaid.gov
Entrance Counseling
If you decide to accept a Stafford federal loan, you must complete online entrance counseling to ensure you understand the responsibilities and obligations of a loan. The process only takes 20 to 30 minutes.
Exit Counseling
If you graduate, drop below half-time enrollment, or leave school, and you have Stafford loans, you must complete exit loan counseling. This 20- to 30-minute online counseling session prepares you with information needed to repay loans.
Stafford and PLUS Loan Master Promissory Note (MPN)
The Master Promissory Note is a legal document you sign as a promise to repay your loans, accrued interest, and fees to the U.S. Department of Education.
Loan Discharge Certification
Professional Judgment
We know that sometimes a family's financial situation is not accurately represented on the FAFSA. In some cases, we may be able to consider a Professional Judgment. Professional Judgment requests must be approved by the Professional Judgment Committee.
Graduate Payment/Refund Estimator
Graduate students can estimate their remaining costs or refunds using our Graduate Payment/Refund Estimators. Please click the link for your academic year:
