The social security number is used for verification purposes only, and is not used as a student ID number.

This IRS requirement makes it necessary for community colleges to collect the social security number of every student.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/details><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-genesis-blocks-gb-accordion gb-block-accordion\"><details><summary class=\"gb-accordion-title\">How do I know my SSN information will not be compromised?<\/summary><div class=\"gb-accordion-text\">\n<p>To protect your identity, Schoolcraft College will:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Secure your social security number from unauthorized access.<\/li><li>Prohibit the release of your social security number to unauthorized parties.<\/li><li>Assign you a unique student identification number which is used for all educational purposes at Schoolcraft College.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-genesis-blocks-gb-accordion gb-block-accordion\"><details><summary class=\"gb-accordion-title\">What if I refuse and\/or am unable to provide my SSN?<\/summary><div class=\"gb-accordion-text\">\n<p>If a student does not provide his\/her social security number, Schoolcraft College is not able to verify enrollment for loans or employment purposes, and the student will be unable to apply for financial aid.
