Federal and/or Institutional Verification Process
We are pleased to announce we have established a partnership with Inceptia to expedite the verification process for Collin College. Verification Gateway (VG) from Inceptia is an online portal that guides students and parents through every step of the verification process.
If your FAFSA application is selected for verification by the U.S. Department of Education,
you will receive an email from VGCS@inceptia.org or a postcard from Inceptia, containing Collin College’s unique website link to start
the verification process.
We encourage you to begin the verification process within seven days of receiving notification from VG to ensure you receive your financial aid in
time for payments. Failure to complete the verification process could result in the
delay or denial of your financial aid.
Steps to complete your verification:
- Access the college’s unique website link in the email from VGCS@inceptia.org or listed below under the links and deadlines.
- Create your account* and choose preferences for text messages and e-signatures.
- Complete your “Task List” inside the portal.
- Confirm your signature and review your information.
- Electronically Sign your account.
*If you are a dependent student, your parent also needs to create an account and complete each of these steps.
