By March 1, first-year grant applicants that have been admitted (Class of 2012) must submit complete copies of signed 2008 federal income tax forms (with all schedules, attachments, and W-2's) for all persons included on the Need Access application. We strongly encourage applicants and their families to complete their tax forms early, but if it is impossible to do so, you can submit complete 2007 tax forms by March 1 to be considered for a grant. Complete 2008 tax forms must be submitted by the end of April to confirm a grant. We review tax forms to confirm and make any necessary adjustments to financial aid awards. Therefore, please keep in mind that the late submission of 2008 tax forms will result in late notification of any alterations to your award. Applicants to the J.D. program DO NOT need to submit tax returns unless they are admitted.
All tax forms must be signed and dated, and all schedules, attachments, and W-2 forms must be submitted. If the applicant, his/her parents, or spouse, own a business, complete business returns also need to be included, as well as any partnership and/or "S" Corporation returns.
