How to Verify:

There are 2 ways for your account to be verified before you can view and certify student applications.

1. An already-verified advisor from your institution can log into the Gilman Advisor Portal and verify your account on their Advisors tab.

Each institution must have at least one financial aid certifying advisor and one study abroad certifying advisor in order to certify student applications.
