Pell - LEU

    LEU – Lifetime Eligibility Used Reduces the duration of a student’s eligibility to receive Pell Grant to 12 semesters (600% - 6 full Scheduled Awards) Applies to all students effective with the 2012-13 award year.

Calculation includes

all

earlier years of the student’s receipt of Pell  NO “grandfather” clause 3

Pell - LEU

 Calculate the equivalency by adding together each of the annual percentages of a student’s scheduled award that was actually disbursed to the student.

 Once LEU reaches 600%, student no longer eligible

for Pell

  May impact FSEOG eligibility If LEU more than 500% but less than 600%, partial eligibility for next award year 4

Pell - LEU

EA posted on February 17, April 6, June 29  Beginning in July 2012 –   NSLDS will display student’s LEU CPS will use comment codes on ISIRs/SARs to  flag students LEU is almost/exceeds 600%.

 New COD Pell LEU History page 

COD is the system of record for LEUs

If report a disbursement but don’t disburse or don’t disburse in full, MUST adjust (more important now than ever due to the 600% limit) 

Report adjustments within 30 days (8/13/12 EA)

5

Pell - LEU

• If less than 100% eligibility remaining, handle award like a transfer student • Pay up to full amount allowed in first payment period/term • Pay remaining balance in subsequent payment periods • Do NOT spread out percentage evenly over remaining periods • May round cents but cannot exceed 600% 6

Pell – LEU (Example)

Student’s annual Pell award is $4800 (100%) Student’s current LEU is 523.867% of 600% • Student has 76.133% LEU remaining • • Do not round percentages 76.133

% of the student’s annual award is $3654.384

Disburse 50% of annual award ($4800) 1 st term = $2400 (assuming full-time student) Disburse remainder of annual award in second term, up to the remainder of their LEU = $1254.384 (26.133%) • May round the dollar amount down to $1254 (26.125%), or award the cents $1254.38 (26.133%) 7

Declining Pell - GEN-12-18

• Students can decline all or part of their Pell Grant awards or return some previously received Pell Grant funds to preserve future Pell Grant eligibility • Student may not return any Pell Grant funds from a prior award year (must take place in same award year) • Student must provide a signed, written statement clearly indicating that they are declining/returning Pell funds for which they are otherwise eligible and that those funds may not be available once the award year is over • School must submit any required adjustment records for the student to the COD System 8

Federal Register – May 2, 2012

 Removed regulations pertaining to a 2 nd Grant (2 Pells in one award year) scheduled Pell  Crossover Payment Period (period in 2 award years) 

Removed requirement

to compare ISIRs from both award years and pay from the year with the higher payment  The school will determine which award year the payment period will be placed (34 CFR 690.64)  Ability to meet need’s of the student and maximize eligibility  The entire payment period must be considered in ONE award year and the entire disbursement must be paid out of the award year in which it was placed 9

Effective May 2, 2012

10

GEN-11-16

Graduate Students

   Subsidized Loans eliminated for Graduate Students  Effective for loans made for loan periods beginning on or after July 1, 2012.

 Subsidized Loans for loan periods beginning before July 1, 2012 remain unchanged  COD will edit for changes. Annual limits unchanged, all unsubsidized ($20,500)

Students still eligible for subsidized loans for preparatory coursework and teacher certification programs

11

Upfront Rebates

 Elimination of Direct Loan Incentives  Terminates repayment incentives (“upfront rebate”) to encourage on-time repayment of loans  Effective for loans

first

2012 disbursed on or after July 1,  COD will edit for compliance  An actual disbursement takes precedence over an anticipated disbursement 

Still allows interest rate reduction to borrowers who repay electronically

12

Grace Period Interest Subsidy

 Temporarily eliminates the interest subsidy on Direct Subsidized Loans  during the six month grace period Applies to new Direct Stafford Loans for which the first disbursement is made on or after July 1, 2012, and before July 1, 2014 13

14

Interest Rates and Sub Eligibility

 3.4% interest rates for subsidized loans disbursed on or after 7/1/12 & before 7/1/13   New Subsidized limits: New borrowers on or after July 1, 2013 will be eligible for Subsidized Loans up to 150% of published program length  Once 150% limit reached, ineligible for interest subsidy benefits on all subsidized loans first disbursed on or after July 1, 2013  More guidance coming!

EA dated 7/10/12

15

Aggregate Loan Limits

If a

dependent student’s parent is denied a PLUS

, the dependent student can borrow up to the annual

independent student loan levels

. • Amounts able to borrow because considered an independent student does not count against dependent aggregate loan limits • Amounts able to borrow as dependent student (i.e. 1 st year dependent student can borrow $3500 – base sub/unsub and $2000 additional unsub) would still count against dependent aggregate loan limits.

• Undergrads can never exceed overall total aggregate of $57,500

16

17

Awarding FSEOG

• Pell Grant recipients with lowest EFCs • Known as FSEOG first selection group • Not necessary to receive a Pell Grant in the same payment period as FSEOG • Must be received in same award year • Example: student only receives Pell Grant in Fall due to reaching Pell LEU • Not receiving Pell Grant with lowest EFCs • Known as FSEOG second selection group • May be selected after all Pell recipients have been awarded •

Includes students who exceed Pell LEU for entire award year

18

Perkins: Liquidation and Assignment

• Updated procedures in August 5, 2011 EA • Contains details on liquidation & assignment procedures • Updated procedures coming soon!

• Liquidation of portfolio required when: • School voluntarily withdraws from program • School no longer advancing loans to students • School participation is terminated by ED

[email protected]

19

Disbursing FWS Wages

• Crossover Payment Periods • Compensation earned through June 30 is paid with funds allocated for first award year • Compensation earned starting July 1 is paid with funds allocated for the following year • FWS students may be paid overtime in accordance w/applicable labor rules • Students may earn academic credit and FWS compensation but may not be: • Paid less than if no credit were given •

Paid for time receiving instruction

• Paid unless employer often pays nonFWS person for same job

20

CB Use of Funds - Tips

• Are we avoiding penalty for underuse of funds?

• Do not request more funding than can be used • Transfer funds to FSEOG/FWS • Carry-forward; carry-back • Taking Campus-Based ACA as appropriate • Up to 10% or $75,000 of FWS allocation may be used for job location and development under the JLD program

21

Common FISAP Errors

• Failure to make required revisions • Impacts tentative and final awards • Annual funding may be reduced in G5 by ED • No reinstatement of funds for reporting errors • December 15 deadline date to make revisions • After December 15, revisions must be requested through CB program staff • School does not coordinate with other offices on campus in collecting/reconciling info .

22

G5 Issues

• CB funds transferred from one program to another must be entered in G5 as an expenditure against the program from which they were transferred.

• FWS or FSEOG funds carried forward or back must be entered in G5 as an expenditure against the authorization for the award year from which they were taken •

Do not

attempt to transfer CB funds in G5 • A June 28, 2012 Electronic Announcement explains that schools are no longer able to systematically transfer funds between programs, schools or award years.

23

Ability-to-Benefit (ATB)

 Eliminates Title IV eligibility for students without a high school diploma (or equivalent)  Recognized equivalent of a HSD includes:  GED  State certificate passing State authorized exam State considers same as HSD   Academic transcript of successful completion of at least a 2 year program acceptable for full credit toward a Bachelor’s degree Excelled academically in high school and meets admission policy into at least an AA degree  Home schooled students 24

Ability-to-Benefit: Exception

 Students who attended a Title IV eligible program of study prior to July 1, 2012 OR officially registered for a TIV eligible program prior to July 1, 2012 AND later attended that program may continue to qualify under one of the ATB alternatives –  Passing an independently administered, approved ATB test  Successfully completing at least six credit hours or 225 clock hours 25

Ability-to-Benefit: Exception

   Students do not have to have received Title IV aid prior to July 1, 2012 to qualify for the ATB exceptions School must document student qualifies for use of ATB alternative  NSLDS, transcripts, other documentation from previous school indicating enrollment in eligible program GEN-12-09 - provides a “grandfather” test and various scenarios to assist determine if a student qualifies for the ATB alternative 26

27

Graduate Programs

   At this time graduate schools may continue to follow our written guidance on the program integrity website which states that the repeat coursework regulations only apply to undergraduates Repeat coursework and graduate programs is currently under review Stay tuned to IFAP 28

SAP – Clock Hours

Evaluation “at end of payment period” • Schools have 3 options 1) At the point when the student’s

scheduled clock hours

for the payment period have elapsed, regardless of whether the student attended them; or 2) At the point when the student has

attended

the scheduled clock hours; or 3) At the point when the student

successfully completes

the scheduled clock hours for that payment period

School must establish one review option for a program; cannot start with one option and then after the first review, switch to a different option for that cohort of students.

31

SAP – Pace Calculation Example

Background • • 1200 clock hour program, 40 weeks Payment periods – 450 hrs/15wks; 450/15; 300/10 • Student scheduled 30 hours per week • Max timeframe is 150% of 40 weeks = 60 weeks • 67% completion rate to measure pace • Evaluate SAP each payment period

Program Integrity Q & A website – SAP Question R-Q9 http://www2.ed.gov/policy/highered/reg/hearulemaking/2009/integ rity-qa.html

32

SAP – Pace Calculation Example

Option #1 – Scheduled hours • At 450 scheduled hours, completed 300 hours • 300/450 = 67% or, as expressed in calendar time, 10 weeks/15 weeks = 67%. • Both items checked according to max timeframe • Standard rounding is allowed •

Student is making SAP but not eligible for 2 nd disbursement until successfully completes 450 hours and 15 weeks of instructional time.

• Next SAP review is at 900 scheduled hours

33

SAP – Pace Calculation Example

Option #2 – Attended hours • At 450 attended hours, 600 scheduled hours elapsed • 450/600 = 75% or, as expressed in calendar time, 15 weeks/20 weeks = 75%. • Both items checked according to max timeframe • Standard rounding is allowed •

Student is making SAP but not eligible for 2 nd disbursement until successfully completes 450 hours and 15 weeks of instructional time.

• Next SAP review is at 900 attended hours

34

SAP – Pace Calculation Example

Option #3 – Successfully completed hours • At 450 successfully completed hours, 600 scheduled hours elapsed • 450/600 = 75% or, as expressed in calendar time, 15 weeks/20 weeks = 75%. • Both items checked according to max timeframe • Standard rounding is allowed •

Because student has successfully completed both the hours and the weeks in the payment period, the second disbursement could be made at this time

• Next review is at 900 successfully completed hours

35
