| PublicationDate: 2/19/97 Summary: Renewal Application Processing Author: CPS - Central Processing System (CPS) Date: February 19, 1997 To: All EDE Destination Points From: CPS Customer Service Subject: Renewal Application Processing On February 5, the Central Processing System (CPS) posted a message concerning a problem that affected 1997-98 Renewal Applications filed by certain students. The affected students were independent students who did not supply parental data, and who also validated an institution name preprinted on the application instead of entering a new institution. The earlier message reported that this problem was fixed on January 31; however, the corrected program was not implemented until February 17. An additional 73,699 records that meet the criteria described above were processed between February 1 and 17, and will be reprocessed on February 21. The CPS will transmit the ISIRs for the reprocessed records during the weekend of February 22-23, and will begin printing SARs on February 24. The reprocessing reason code appearing in the FAA Information sections for these SARs and ISIRs will be "02." National Computer Systems apologizes for any inconvenience this may cause. If you have any questions, please contact CPS customer service at 1-800-330-5947, option 8. |
