The FAFSA opens on December 1, which gives the student plenty of time to have it submitted by the deadline. The process for submitting the GPA Verification Form can vary depending on your homeschool structure:
- For students who have a base or charter school: Check in with your school to see if they send in the GPA Verification Form automatically. If not, bring the to them to complete and send it to CSAC at the address listed on the form.
- For students that do not have a base or charter school, you will need to submit the GPA Verification Form with your parent, but you will be submitting test scores instead of a GPA. You can submit scores from the ACT, SAT, GED, TASC or HiSET. Please read the carefully for directions on how to complete and submit it.
