A1. On September 15, 2003, we plan on sending an electronic message to each school that had been awarded supplemental 2003-2004 funding in one or more of the campus-based programs. The message will be sent to the financial aid administrator's e-mail address as reported in the school's Fiscal Operations Report and Application to Participate (FISAP) for the 2003-2004 award year.

Q2. If my school was awarded 2003-2004 supplemental funds, where can I obtain details on the awards?
