Final 2026–27 FISAP Form, Instructions, and Desk Reference (Updated Sept. 26, 2025)
Note

Sept. 26, 2025 Update: We have identified an issue regarding a display misalignment in the FISAP PDF Part II, Section F, Field 33a. On the PDF, Field 33a incorrectly displays the value that was input into Field 30a. This issue impacts the PDF only. All data entered on the FISAP form is being saved correctly in the COD database, and the online form displays the correct value for Field 33a. We are working to fix this issue and appreciate the patience of our partner community.

July 31, 2025 Update: We replaced the 2026–27 FISAP Instructions with an updated version that contains additional instructions for completing Part VI, Section A. Distribution of Program Recipients and Expenditures by Type of Student. In the General Instructions for Part VI, Section A (beginning on page 83), an update has been provided to address the issue of blank/missing FISAP Total Income values on some 2024–25 ISIRs.

The Fiscal Operations Report for 2024–25 and Application to Participate for 2026–27 (FISAP) has been approved by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). The attachments below include the FISAP Form, Instructions, and Desk Reference. The online FISAP will be made available on the Common Origination and Disbursement (COD) website by Aug. 1, 2025.
