SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Table A—2024–2025 Award Year
Deadline Dates by Which a Student
Must Submit the FAFSA, by Which the
Institution Must Receive the Student’s
Institutional Student Information
Record (ISIR) or FAFSA Submission
Summary, and by Which the Institution
Must Submit Verification Outcomes for
Certain Students.
Table A provides information and
deadline dates for receipt of the FAFSA,
corrections to and signatures for the
FAFSA, ISIRs, and FAFSA Submission
Summary, and verification documents.
The deadline date for the receipt of a
FAFSA by the Department’s FAFSA
Processing System (FPS) is June 30,
2025, regardless of the method that the
applicant uses to submit the FAFSA.
The deadline date for the receipt of
corrections, notices of change of address
or institution, or requests for a duplicate
FAFSA Submission Summary is
September 13, 2025.
For all title IV, HEA programs, an ISIR
or FAFSA Submission Summary for the
student must be received by the
institution no later than the student’s
last date of enrollment for the 2024–
2025 award year or September 20, 2025,
whichever is earlier. Note that a FAFSA
must be submitted and an ISIR or
FAFSA Submission Summary received
for the dependent student for whom a
parent is applying for a Direct PLUS
Loan.
Except for students selected for
Verification Tracking Groups V4 and
V5, verification documents must be
received by the institution no later than
120 days after the student’s last date of
enrollment for the 2024–2025 award
year or September 20, 2025, whichever
is earlier. For students selected for
Verification Tracking Groups V4 and
PO 00000
Frm 00017
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
76459
V5, institutions must submit identity
verification results no later than 60 days
following the institution’s first request
to the student to submit the
documentation, or when the FAFSA
Partner Portal (FPP) Verification of
Identity function is made available for
the 2024–2025 Award Year, whichever
is later.
For all title IV, HEA programs except
for (1) Direct PLUS Loans that will be
made to parent borrowers, and (2) Direct
Unsubsidized Loans that will be made
to dependent students who have been
determined by the institution, pursuant
to section 479A(a) of the HEA, to be
eligible for such a loan without
providing parental information on the
FAFSA, the ISIR or FAFSA Submission
Summary must have an official Student
Aid Index (SAI) and the ISIR or FAFSA
Submission Summary must be received
by the institution no later than the
earlier of the student’s last date of
enrollment for the 2024–2025 award
year or September 20, 2025. For the two
exceptions mentioned above, the ISIR or
FAFSA Submission Summary must be
received by the institution by the same
dates noted in this paragraph but the
ISIR or FAFSA Submission Summary is
not required to have an official SAI.
For a student who is requesting aid
through the Pell Grant, FSEOG, or FWS
programs or for a student requesting
Direct Subsidized Loans, who does not
meet the conditions for a late
disbursement under 34 CFR 668.164(j),
a valid ISIR or valid FAFSA Submission
Summary must be received by the
institution by the student’s last date of
enrollment for the 2024–2025 award
year or September 20, 2025, whichever
is earlier. Additionally, for the 2024–
2025 Award Year, the Department is
providing additional flexibilities for
students who applied via the paper
FAFSA form and were enrolled only for
the 2024 summer term. An institution
that receives an ISIR for a student who
was enrolled for the summer term and
is no longer enrolled, and who, if not for
the delay of the processing of paper
FAFSA forms, would have otherwise
been eligible to receive title IV program
funds, may still award and disburse the
funds, subject to all other late
disbursement requirements. For this
exception to apply, the ISIR or FAFSA
Submission Summary must have an
Application Receipt Date on or before
the student’s last date of enrollment for
the summer term but the ISIR or FAFSA
Submission Summary is not required to
have an official SAI.
In accordance with 34 CFR
668.164(j)(4)(i), an institution may not
make a late disbursement of title IV,
HEA program funds later than 180 days
E:\FR\FM\18SEN1.SGM
18SEN1
76460
Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 181 / Wednesday, September 18, 2024 / Notices
after the date of the institution’s
determination that the student was no
longer enrolled. Table A provides that,
to make a late disbursement of title IV,
HEA program funds, an institution must
receive a valid ISIR or valid FAFSA
Submission Summary no later than 180
days after its determination that the
student was no longer enrolled, but not
later than September 20, 2025.
Table B—2024–2025 Award Year
Deadline Dates By Which an Institution
Must Submit Disbursement Information
For the Pell Grant, Direct Loan, and
TEACH Grant Programs.
For the Pell Grant, Direct Loan, and
TEACH Grant programs, Table B
provides the earliest disbursement date,
the earliest dates for institutions to
submit disbursement records to the
Department’s Common Origination and
Disbursement (COD) System, and
deadline dates by which institutions
must submit disbursement and
origination records.
For the 2024–25 Award Year, an
institution must submit Pell Grant,
Direct Loan, and TEACH Grant
disbursement records to COD, no later
than November 30, 2024 or 15 days after
making the disbursement or becoming
aware of the need to adjust a previously
reported disbursement, whichever is
later. In accordance with 34 CFR
668.164(a), title IV, HEA program funds
are disbursed on the date that the
institution: (a) credits those funds to a
student’s account in the institution’s
general ledger or any subledger of the
general ledger; or (b) pays those funds
to a student directly. Title IV, HEA
program funds are disbursed even if an
institution uses its own funds in
advance of receiving program funds
from the Department.
An institution’s failure to submit
disbursement records within the
required timeframe may result in the
Department rejecting all or part of the
reported disbursement. Such failure
may also result in an audit or program
review finding or the initiation of an
adverse action, such as a fine or other
penalty for such failure, in accordance
with subpart G of the General Provisions
regulations in 34 CFR part 668.
Deadline Dates for Enrollment
Reporting by Institutions.
In accordance with 34 CFR 674.19(f),
682.610(c), 685.309(b), and 690.83(b)(2),
upon receipt of an enrollment report
from the Secretary, institutions must
update all information included in the
report and return the report to the
Secretary in a manner and format
prescribed by the Secretary and within
the timeframe prescribed by the
Secretary. Consistent with the National
Student Loan Data System (NSLDS)
Enrollment Reporting Guide, the
Secretary has determined that
institutions must report at least every
two months. Institutions may find the
NSLDS Enrollment Reporting Guide in
the ‘‘Knowledge Center’’ via Federal
Student Aid’s (FSA) Partner Connect

1 The deadline for electronic transactions is 11:59 p.m. (Central Time) on the deadline date. Transmissions must be completed and accepted
before 12:00 midnight to meet the deadline. If transmissions are started before 12:00 midnight but are not completed until after 12:00 midnight,
those transmissions do not meet the deadline. In addition, any transmission submitted on or just prior to the deadline date that is rejected may
not be reprocessed because the deadline will have passed by the time the user gets the information notifying them of the rejection.
2 The date the ISIR/FAFSA Submission Summary transaction was processed by FPS is considered to be the date the institution received the
ISIR or FAFSA Submission Summary regardless of whether the institution has downloaded the ISIR from its Student Aid Internet Gateway
(SAIG) mailbox or when the student submits the FAFSA Submission Summary to the institution. For the 2024–25 Award Year, as published by
the Department in the July 30, 2024 Electronic Announcement (GENERAL–24–94), institutions have additional flexibilities for students who applied via the paper FAFSA form and were enrolled only for the 2024 summer term. An institution may still award and disburse funds for a student
that is no longer enrolled for the 2024–25 Award Year if the following criteria are met: (a) the institution receives an ISIR or FAFSA Submission
Summary for the student; (b) the student applied via the paper FAFSA form; (c) the student was enrolled during the 2024 summer term but is no
longer enrolled; (d) the Application Receipt Date on the ISIR or FAFSA Submission Summary is on or before the student’s last date of enrollment; and (3) the student was otherwise eligible to receive title IV program funding, subject to all other late disbursement requirements. For more
information, please visit: https://fsapartners.ed.gov/knowledge-center/library/electronic-announcements/2024-07-30/updates-2024-25-fafsa-paperprocessing.
3 Although the Secretary has set this deadline date for the submission of verification documents, if corrections are required, deadline dates for
submission of paper or electronic corrections and, for Pell Grant applicants and applicants selected for verification, deadline dates for the submission of a valid FAFSA Submission Summary or valid ISIR to the institution must still be met. An institution may establish an earlier deadline
for the submission of verification documents for purposes of the campus-based programs and the Direct Loan Program, but it cannot be later
than this deadline date.
4 Note that changes to previously submitted Identity Verification Results must be updated within 30 days of the institution becoming aware that
a change has occurred.

1 A COD Processing Year is a period of time in which institutions are permitted to submit Direct Loan records to the COD System that are related to a given award
year. For a Direct Loan, the period of time includes loans that have a loan period covering any day in the 2024–2025 award year.
2 Transmissions must be completed and accepted before the designated processing time on the deadline submission date. The designated processing time is published annually via an electronic announcement posted to the Knowledge Center via FSA’s Partner Connect website at: https://fsapartners.ed.gov/knowledge-center. If
transmissions are started at the designated time, but are not completed until after the designated time, those transmissions will not meet the deadline. In addition, any
transmission submitted on or just prior to the deadline date that is rejected may not be reprocessed because the deadline will have passed by the time the user gets
the information notifying him or her of the rejection.
3 A temporary extension of the deadline for reporting disbursement records to the COD System was published by the Department in the July 30, 2024 Electronic
Announcement (GENERAL–24–94). For more information, please visit: https://fsapartners.ed.gov/knowledge-center/library/electronic-announcements/2024-07-30/updates-2024-25-fafsa-paper-processing.
4 Applies only to students enrolled in clock-hour and nonterm credit-hour educational programs.
Note: The COD System must accept origination data for a student from an institution before it accepts disbursement information from the institution for that student.
Institutions may submit origination and disbursement data for a student in the same transmission. However, if the origination data is rejected, the disbursement data is
rejected.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Table A--2024-2025 Award Year Deadline Dates by Which a Student
Must Submit the FAFSA, by Which the Institution Must Receive the
Student's Institutional Student Information Record (ISIR) or FAFSA
Submission Summary, and by Which the Institution Must Submit
Verification Outcomes for Certain Students.
Table A provides information and deadline dates for receipt of the
FAFSA, corrections to and signatures for the FAFSA, ISIRs, and FAFSA
Submission Summary, and verification documents.
The deadline date for the receipt of a FAFSA by the Department's
FAFSA Processing System (FPS) is June 30, 2025, regardless of the
method that the applicant uses to submit the FAFSA. The deadline date
for the receipt of corrections, notices of change of address or
institution, or requests for a duplicate FAFSA Submission Summary is
September 13, 2025.
For all title IV, HEA programs, an ISIR or FAFSA Submission Summary
for the student must be received by the institution no later than the
student's last date of enrollment for the 2024-2025 award year or
September 20, 2025, whichever is earlier. Note that a FAFSA must be
submitted and an ISIR or FAFSA Submission Summary received for the
dependent student for whom a parent is applying for a Direct PLUS Loan.
Except for students selected for Verification Tracking Groups V4
and V5, verification documents must be received by the institution no
later than 120 days after the student's last date of enrollment for the
2024-2025 award year or September 20, 2025, whichever is earlier. For
students selected for Verification Tracking Groups V4 and V5,
institutions must submit identity verification results no later than 60
days following the institution's first request to the student to submit
the documentation, or when the FAFSA Partner Portal (FPP) Verification
of Identity function is made available for the 2024-2025 Award Year,
whichever is later.
For all title IV, HEA programs except for (1) Direct PLUS Loans
that will be made to parent borrowers, and (2) Direct Unsubsidized
Loans that will be made to dependent students who have been determined
by the institution, pursuant to section 479A(a) of the HEA, to be
eligible for such a loan without providing parental information on the
FAFSA, the ISIR or FAFSA Submission Summary must have an official
Student Aid Index (SAI) and the ISIR or FAFSA Submission Summary must
be received by the institution no later than the earlier of the
student's last date of enrollment for the 2024-2025 award year or
September 20, 2025. For the two exceptions mentioned above, the ISIR or
FAFSA Submission Summary must be received by the institution by the
same dates noted in this paragraph but the ISIR or FAFSA Submission
Summary is not required to have an official SAI.
For a student who is requesting aid through the Pell Grant, FSEOG,
or FWS programs or for a student requesting Direct Subsidized Loans,
who does not meet the conditions for a late disbursement under 34 CFR
668.164(j), a valid ISIR or valid FAFSA Submission Summary must be
received by the institution by the student's last date of enrollment
for the 2024-2025 award year or September 20, 2025, whichever is
earlier. Additionally, for the 2024-2025 Award Year, the Department is
providing additional flexibilities for students who applied via the
paper FAFSA form and were enrolled only for the 2024 summer term. An
institution that receives an ISIR for a student who was enrolled for
the summer term and is no longer enrolled, and who, if not for the
delay of the processing of paper FAFSA forms, would have otherwise been
eligible to receive title IV program funds, may still award and
disburse the funds, subject to all other late disbursement
requirements. For this exception to apply, the ISIR or FAFSA Submission
Summary must have an Application Receipt Date on or before the
student's last date of enrollment for the summer term but the ISIR or
FAFSA Submission Summary is not required to have an official SAI.
In accordance with 34 CFR 668.164(j)(4)(i), an institution may not
make a late disbursement of title IV, HEA program funds later than 180
days
[[Page 76460]]
after the date of the institution's determination that the student was
no longer enrolled. Table A provides that, to make a late disbursement
of title IV, HEA program funds, an institution must receive a valid
ISIR or valid FAFSA Submission Summary no later than 180 days after its
determination that the student was no longer enrolled, but not later
than September 20, 2025.
Table B--2024-2025 Award Year Deadline Dates By Which an
Institution Must Submit Disbursement Information For the Pell Grant,
Direct Loan, and TEACH Grant Programs.
For the Pell Grant, Direct Loan, and TEACH Grant programs, Table B
provides the earliest disbursement date, the earliest dates for
institutions to submit disbursement records to the Department's Common
Origination and Disbursement (COD) System, and deadline dates by which
institutions must submit disbursement and origination records.
For the 2024-25 Award Year, an institution must submit Pell Grant,
Direct Loan, and TEACH Grant disbursement records to COD, no later than
November 30, 2024 or 15 days after making the disbursement or becoming
aware of the need to adjust a previously reported disbursement,
whichever is later. In accordance with 34 CFR 668.164(a), title IV, HEA
program funds are disbursed on the date that the institution: (a)
credits those funds to a student's account in the institution's general
ledger or any subledger of the general ledger; or (b) pays those funds
to a student directly. Title IV, HEA program funds are disbursed even
if an institution uses its own funds in advance of receiving program
funds from the Department.
An institution's failure to submit disbursement records within the
required timeframe may result in the Department rejecting all or part
of the reported disbursement. Such failure may also result in an audit
or program review finding or the initiation of an adverse action, such
as a fine or other penalty for such failure, in accordance with subpart
G of the General Provisions regulations in 34 CFR part 668.
Deadline Dates for Enrollment Reporting by Institutions.
In accordance with 34 CFR 674.19(f), 682.610(c), 685.309(b), and
690.83(b)(2), upon receipt of an enrollment report from the Secretary,
institutions must update all information included in the report and
return the report to the Secretary in a manner and format prescribed by
the Secretary and within the timeframe prescribed by the Secretary.
Consistent with the National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS)
Enrollment Reporting Guide, the Secretary has determined that
institutions must report at least every two months. Institutions may
find the NSLDS Enrollment Reporting Guide in the ``Knowledge Center''
via Federal Student Aid's (FSA) Partner Connect website at: https://fsapartners.ed.gov/knowledge-center.

\1\ The deadline for electronic transactions is 11:59 p.m. (Central Time) on the deadline date. Transmissions
must be completed and accepted before 12:00 midnight to meet the deadline. If transmissions are started before
12:00 midnight but are not completed until after 12:00 midnight, those transmissions do not meet the deadline.
In addition, any transmission submitted on or just prior to the deadline date that is rejected may not be
reprocessed because the deadline will have passed by the time the user gets the information notifying them of
the rejection.
\2\ The date the ISIR/FAFSA Submission Summary transaction was processed by FPS is considered to be the date the
institution received the ISIR or FAFSA Submission Summary regardless of whether the institution has downloaded
the ISIR from its Student Aid Internet Gateway (SAIG) mailbox or when the student submits the FAFSA Submission
Summary to the institution. For the 2024-25 Award Year, as published by the Department in the July 30, 2024
Electronic Announcement (GENERAL-24-94), institutions have additional flexibilities for students who applied
via the paper FAFSA form and were enrolled only for the 2024 summer term. An institution may still award and
disburse funds for a student that is no longer enrolled for the 2024-25 Award Year if the following criteria
are met: (a) the institution receives an ISIR or FAFSA Submission Summary for the student; (b) the student
applied via the paper FAFSA form; (c) the student was enrolled during the 2024 summer term but is no longer
enrolled; (d) the Application Receipt Date on the ISIR or FAFSA Submission Summary is on or before the
student's last date of enrollment; and (3) the student was otherwise eligible to receive title IV program
funding, subject to all other late disbursement requirements. For more information, please visit: https://fsapartners.ed.gov/knowledge-center/library/electronic-announcements/2024-07-30/updates-2024-25-fafsa-paper-processing processing.
\3\ Although the Secretary has set this deadline date for the submission of verification documents, if
corrections are required, deadline dates for submission of paper or electronic corrections and, for Pell Grant
applicants and applicants selected for verification, deadline dates for the submission of a valid FAFSA
Submission Summary or valid ISIR to the institution must still be met. An institution may establish an earlier
deadline for the submission of verification documents for purposes of the campus-based programs and the Direct
Loan Program, but it cannot be later than this deadline date.
\4\ Note that changes to previously submitted Identity Verification Results must be updated within 30 days of
the institution becoming aware that a change has occurred.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ A COD Processing Year is a period of time in which institutions are permitted to submit Direct Loan records
to the COD System that are related to a given award year. For a Direct Loan, the period of time includes loans
that have a loan period covering any day in the 2024-2025 award year.
\2\ Transmissions must be completed and accepted before the designated processing time on the deadline
submission date. The designated processing time is published annually via an electronic announcement posted to
the Knowledge Center via FSA's Partner Connect website at: https://fsapartners.ed.gov/knowledge-center. If
transmissions are started at the designated time, but are not completed until after the designated time, those
transmissions will not meet the deadline. In addition, any transmission submitted on or just prior to the
deadline date that is rejected may not be reprocessed because the deadline will have passed by the time the
user gets the information notifying him or her of the rejection.
\3\ A temporary extension of the deadline for reporting disbursement records to the COD System was published by
the Department in the July 30, 2024 Electronic Announcement (GENERAL-24-94). For more information, please
visit: https://fsapartners.ed.gov/knowledge-center/library/electronic-announcements/2024-07-30/updates-2024-25-fafsa-paper-processing.
\4\ Applies only to students enrolled in clock-hour and nonterm credit-hour educational programs.
Note: The COD System must accept origination data for a student from an institution before it accepts
disbursement information from the institution for that student. Institutions may submit origination and
disbursement data for a student in the same transmission. However, if the origination data is rejected, the
disbursement data is rejected.
