Volume 3: Calculating Awards and Packaging

Description

Location

Formula 2 Summary graphic. In step 5 disregard guidance given and substitute the following:

Proration required unless alternate calculation is used.

Annual award × weeks of instructional time in fall through spring terms/weeks of instructional time in program's academic year definition. Divide the result of this calculation by 2 if semesters or trimesters or by 3 if quarters.

3-54

In the shaded box at the bottom of the page entitled "Examples of Estimated Financial Assistance," the second bullet under the heading "NOTE:" should read "When determining eligibility for subsidized DL or FFEL, you must exclude the entire amount of Americorps benefits or Chapter 30 veterans educational benefits from Estimated Financial Assistance."

3-114

The margin note "Prepaid tuition plans" should read "Prepaid tuition plans are no longer considered EFA; instead, they are treated the same as Coverdell education and 529 savings accounts: their value is an asset of the owner of the account, unless..." (rest of margin note unchanged)

3-115

In the first paragraph under the heading "Veterans and Americorps benefits," the third sentence should read "However, for Campus-Based and ACG/SMART Grant purposes, you may exclude as EFA a portion of any subsidized DL or FFEL loan that is equal to or less than the amount of the student's Chapter 30 Montgomery GI Bill benefits and/or Americorps benefits paid for the cost of attendance."

Application and Verification Guide

Most of the changes for this edition of the AVG arise from the Higher Education Reconciliation Act (HERA) that became law in February of 2006, though a few other revisions noted below are not related to the HERA.

Chapter 2 Filling Out the Application

Description

Location

We added to the margin note on income earned from work the instruction that now appears on the FAFSA on how to account for partnership income so that a more accurate social security tax allowance and employment expense allowance are included in the expected family contribution (EFC) calculation.

P. AVG-12

This page includes guidance pertaining to the exclusion of small businesses from assets, which is now effective because of the HERA.

P. AVG-19

We have updated the text for the newly uniform treatment in the need analysis of qualified tuition programs and Coverdell education savings accounts and for their categorization as qualified education benefits.

P. AVG-19 and 20

We amended the guidance regarding treatment of an asset that has a lien against it. The asset is still counted on the FAFSA, as previously, but now the amount of the lien is to be deducted along with any debt owed on the asset to determine its net worth.

P. AVG-21

We added a paragraph on the new category of independent students: active duty members of the military.

P. AVG-23

There was a margin note that dealt with schools added to transactions that contained a dependency override. These schools then received an ISIR that contained the override. Because the CPS does not now permit schools to be added to transactions with overrides, we removed the note.

P. AVG-25

This page discusses the new federal means-tested benefit option for the tax return requirement of the simplified needs and automatic zero EFC calculations.

P. AVG-30

Chapter 3 Expected Family Contribution

The EFC chapter contains the HERA-related changes to the elements of the need analysis: the income protection allowances, employment expense allowances, and student asset multiplication factors were all favorably adjusted by the HERA for the student.

Description

Location

We added a margin note on page 37 about claiming the tuition and fees tax deduction or the educator expenses deduction on the IRS's Form 1040. This need not make a student or parent ineligible for consideration for the simplified needs calculation or automatic zero EFC.

We received inquiries about why using a zero on the FAFSA in place of a negative AGI from the tax return yields a different EFC. Since the worksheets for the EFC formulas direct users to substitute a zero for a negative AGI, wouldn't it be proper to make the same substitution on the FAFSA? It is not proper, and we explain this in a margin note on page 37.

P. AVG-37

Chapter 4 Verification

Description

Location

We added text allowing for an e-signature option for verification documents and text excluding a signed IRS e-file Signature Authorization (Form 8879) as a substitute for a signature on a tax return.

P. AVG-84

Chapter 5 Corrections, Updates, and Adjustments

Description

Location

We added a margin note reminding you that the section of the Higher Education Act authorizing the use of discretion by financial aid administrators, Section 479A, contains not only the provisions for adjusting the cost of attendance or the data used in the EFC calculation (paragraph a), but also the provisions that permit an FAA to refuse to certify or originate a FFEL or Direct loan or to reduce the loan amount (paragraph c). The reason must be documented in writing, given to the student, and must not be based on discrimination.

P. AVG-99

Volume 1: Student Eligibility

The biggest change to this volume for 2007-08 is the addition of a new Chapter 6, ACG and National SMART Grant Eligibility (the former Chapter 6 became Chapter 7). Two new Title IV grants, the Academic Competitiveness Grant (ACG) and the National Science and Mathematics Access to Retain Talent (National SMART) Grant, were created as a result of the Higher Education Reconciliation Act of 2005 (HERA), Pub. L. 109-171, enacted on February 8, 2006. Some of the other changes listed below relate to the HERA and some do not.

Chapter 1 School-Determined Requirements

Description

Location

We noted two things about remedial coursework (if it is to be paid for with Title IV funds): that it cannot be below the educational level that would allow the student to pursue her program after one year of the coursework and that it cannot use direct assessment of student learning in lieu of credit or clock hours. On the same page we transferred some text from Volume 2 pertaining to ESL classes.

P. 1-4

The same restriction above regarding remedial coursework and direct assessment also applies to teacher certification coursework. We added a phrase to the bullet at the bottom of page 5 about the acceptability of foreign high school diplomas, and we amended the sidebar note regarding valid diplomas to indicate that state departments of education do not have oversight of all high schools.

P. 1-5

There is a new ability-to-benefit test entry on page 9: the ESL Placement Test. Also, the CELSA passing scores were raised from 90 to 97.

P. 1-9

The HERA brought changes to the drug conviction eligibility criterion.

P. 1-12

The treatment of telecommunications courses changed due to the HERA.

P. 1-15

Chapter 2 Citizenship

Description

Location

Victims of human trafficking and their close relatives have been added as a category of eligible noncitizens; see the pertinent text on these pages.

Pp. 21, 23, and 24

The G-845 form has replaced the G-845S; the differences between the two are reflected in the instructions on using the form found on these pages.

In the margin of page 27 we noted that the USCIS is gradually reducing the number of its field offices that are processing the G-845 form, and we give instructions on determining the field office that you will send the form to.

We also noted in the margin of that page that the purpose of the G-845 is to determine the student’s immigration status; you must use that information along with the guidance in Chapter 2 to determine if a student is eligible for Title IV aid.

Pp. 27-33

Chapter 7 Other Program Requirements

Description

Location

We specified the loan limits for preparatory coursework because they did not increase as did the other loan limits, and we added a margin note on taking preparatory coursework at a different school from the one offering the program the student is preparing for.

P. 71

There is a new sidebar note stating that the requirement that a student must meet the general eligibility criteria applies to all the component funds of the LEAP Program.

P. 75

Volume 2: School Eligibility and Operations

The references to consumer information and counseling resources have been updated to match current products provided by ED

P. 2-77

Added sample notice that schools may use to announce the availability of the annual security report.

The sample debarment/suspension certification statement (for lower-tier organizations) has been added to the sidebar, since the original document (DCL GEN-89-21) is unlikely to be accessible to schools.

We have updated the text to reflect the way schools must resolve overawards containing ACT or National SMART Grant funds.

We remind schools that although HERA increased the de minimus threshold for overpayments due to withdrawal, the de minimus amount for all other overpayments remains less than $25.

P. 5-13

We remind schools that regardless of the type of loan (FFEL or Direct) consolidated and no matter the type of consolidated loan the student obtained, if a student has consolidated the loan(s) that exceeded the annual or aggregate loan limit, he or she is considered to have made satisfactory arrangements to repay the debt, and no additional action on the part of the student is required in order to regain Title IV eligibility when the loss of eligibility was due solely to exceeding those loan maximums.

P. 5-14

Chapter 2 Withdrawals and the Return of Title IV Funds

Description

Location

We remind schools that a student begins earning Title IV funds on his or her first day of attendance, and that even if a student withdraws before a school’s census date, the school must perform a Return calculation using the number of days or the number of scheduled clock hours the student attended class as the numerator in STEP 2, Part H.

P. 5-22

We updated the text to reflect the fact that under the HERA the number of days schools have to return funds has changed from 30 to 45.

P. 5-92

We updated the text to reflect the fact that under the HERA the de minimus amount a student must repay is now $50, and therefore a grant overpayment of $50 or less will not make the student ineligible to receive Title IV, HEA program assistance should the student return to school.

P. 5-96

We provide new worksheets schools can use in performing return calculations, tracking post withdrawal disbursements, and referring students to ED for collection.
