In an effort to safeguard student confidentiality, the Office of Student Aid requires students and family members to verify their identity. When contacting us, students and their families will need to provide a Penn State ID Number and answer questions that will verify their identity. In-person consultations require students to show their Penn State ID Card and family members to show a valid federal or state-issued photo ID card for service.
