AVOIDING OBSTACLES

What follows is a list of the most common errors that students make when completing the Aid for Part-time Study Application:

  • Used wrong income number or left income blank - must use NY State Net Taxable Income, not Adjusted Gross Income (AGI).
  • Required signatures missing - signatures of student, parents and spouses are required.
  • Independent students don't indicate that they have dependents - must check the box.
