I request a waiver to the Lottery Tuition Assistance eligibility requirement relating to the submission of the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) for the following reason (check all that apply):

o I am a high school student enrolled in a dual enrollment program.

o I have already earned a Bachelor’s Degree and have provided an official transcript to the MTC Admissions Office.

o I am enrolled in a program that is not eligible for Title IV federal aid.

o I am a dependent student who cannot get my parents’ signature or Tax Return Transcript.

(You must attach a letter from your parents confirming this statement)

o I am an independent student who cannot get my spouse’s Tax Return Transcript.

o I am an independent student and my adjusted gross income is at least $80,000.

I will provide a copy of my Federal Tax Return Transcript.

o I am a dependent student and my parent’s adjusted gross income is at least $80,000.

I will provide a copy of their Federal Tax Return Transcript.

BY NOT SUBMITTING THE FAFSA, I ACKNOWLEDGE THAT:

I will not be eligible to receive other Title IV aid, which includes the Pell Grant, Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant, Perkins Loan, Stafford Loans, Federal Work Study and the SC Need-Based Grant. Also, I will not be able to participate in state assistance programs that require the submission of the FAFSA. Further, I understand that neither the state of South Carolina nor the institution can be held liable for any amount of federal or state funds that I forgo by signing this waiver.

I do not owe a refund or repayment of a state grant, Pell Grant, or Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant, and I am not in default on a loan under the Federal Perkins Loan, Federal Stafford Loan, William D. Ford Federal Loan, or any state loans. I understand that the institution will verify this.

Male Students Only: I have registered with the Selective Service or I have been exempted from this requirement according to federal law. I understand that students who fail to register with the Selective Service or fail to be exempt from that requirement are not eligible to receive Lottery Tuition Assistance.

The provided information is correct and if any of the information is false, I understand participation in the Lottery Tuition Assistance Program will be canceled and reimbursement of Lottery Tuition Assistance funds will be required. Further, I understand that if I have attempted to obtain, or have obtained Lottery Tuition Assistance through means of a willfully false statement or failure to reveal any material fact, condition, or circumstance affecting eligibility, I can be subject to the college/university’s code of student conduct and applicable civil or criminal penalties.

This waiver is not valid until all requested documentation is provided to the financial aid office, and all documentation has been verified.
