The Mississippi Office of Student Financial Aid has returned to normal operations and full functionality following a network security incident. We are working to process all applications for student financial aid that have been submitted to us as well as any outstanding payments. We have also re-established secure services with each of our individual higher education institutions. We regret the inconvenience caused by the network security incident.
The demonstrated need (must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid for demonstrated need to be determined) of the applicant for financial assistance to meet the actual costs of attending the eligible institution of choice as determined from financial information on the applicant and, if required, on the applicant’s parents under the federal need analysis formula.
