Every year the U.S. Department of Education requires Western Kentucky University to verify information some students submit on the FAFSA. This process ensures the right amount of aid goes to the most qualified students. Western Kentucky University has contracted with KHEAA to provide verification services for students.
You can find all verification documents by signing in at KHEAA Verify. All forms and documentation should be completed and submitted to KHEAA Verify as soon as possible. KHEAA Verify will contact you if the documents received are incomplete or if more information is needed to complete the process. Students and parents should contact KHEAA Verify with questions about the receipt of their documents or the status of their verification. Call 855.272.8771 to speak with a member of the KHEAA Verify team.
