We are pleased to announce the availability of the 2022 Federal Student Aid (FSA) New School Guide and the FSA Assessments for the 2021-2022 award year.
The New School Guide assists a school as it begins participating in the federal student aid programs. The guide is designed to give the school a quick introduction to program and systems requirements that it should consider as a part of its start-up activities. It consists of a cover, table of contents, introduction, three chapters, and three appendices.
The FSA Assessments help explain how your school should administer the FSA programs. Federal Student Aid has coordinated with financial aid professionals to design the FSA Assessments to help schools with compliance and improvement activities. The FSA Assessments contain links to the applicable laws and regulations that underlie policy and operational guidance, and are updated each award year.
