E-Sign Process

There is now the ability for you and your parents (if you are a dependent), to electronically sign (e-sign) your Financial Aid documents instead of having to print them out and sign them. In order to do this, you will need to set up a PIN number which will be used in place of your hard-copy signature on the documents. Click here for E-sign procedures for Students and Parents.

Tips
  • The information you used on your FAFSA needs to be the exact same information you use for your account. If you use a different name or other personal information than what is in your FAFSA you will be shown error code 1010.
  • You must create your account before your parent does.
  • Parents with multiple children will need to log in with a unique username and email for each child.
  • Your parents password is also their E-sign (pin)
  • Don’t forget that once your parent signs the requested documents, you will need to go back into the portal and ensure all required steps are complete.
  • If you parent needs to email you a document, the email should be encrypted. Instructions for sending secure email with Berea 365
