We would like to let you know that there was an error in the file Number of 2003-04 Applications Received by School by Source that was posted on IFAP on March 13, 2003. The file indicates that there have been no applications filed by students via FAFSA on the Web for 2003-04 when that is far from accurate. As a matter of fact, we have processed 816,956 FAFSA on the Web applications and 990,536 Renewal FAFSA on the Web applications. In addition, there are approximately 250,000 on the hold file waiting for signatures.
The program that creates that report is being evaluated and as soon as it has been fixed and the reports have been rerun, a new report will be posted for you to review.
We would like to apologize for an inconvenience that this has caused.
