Enrollment Reporting Update
31
Importance of Enrollment Reporting Critical for administration of Title IV Loan Programs Ensures students’ rights are protected Essential for – Proper servicing of loan throughout the life cycle of the loan – Preventing defaults – School cohort management 31
32
NSLDS places students on a roster based on reporting of federal aid COD disbursement records now require the “Enrollment School Code” It is important that schools add financial aid recipients to their rosters if the students are not listed 32 Report Students Where They Attend
33
Students should be reported at two locations of the same 6-digit OPEID ONLY IF the student is actually attending both If the student is not enrolled at both locations, report the correct location for the student If a student appears on a roster of an incorrect location, use the “Move to” functionality to report the correct location for the student 33
34
“Move To” Location Functionality The location field – Last 2-digits of the 8-digit OPEID – Has been added in both batch and online Schools that share the same 6-digit OPEID and Administrator can “move” a student to the roster of the location where s/he attends – Helpful for students misreported at a location – Helpful for transfers between locations 34
35
Batch File – Field is “Move to School Branch Code” Online – Field on Enrollment Maintenance is “Loc” (Location) 35 “Move To” Location Functionality
36
When certifying a change, provide the enrollment data for the “new” location – Enrollment status at new location – Enrollment status effective date For transfers, provide the effective date at the new location For correction of location, provide the date the student began this current enrollment status for that location – Anticipated Completion Date 36 “Move To” Location Functionality
37
– When “Move To” is used, NSLDS performs the action of stopping enrollment at one location and beginning it at another – Currently a “Withdrawn” record is applied to the old location – In June, NSLDS will use the status of “Moved” instead of “Withdrawn” 37 “Move To” Location Functionality
38
This summer, NSLDS will store and display the status of “Moved” online instead of “Withdrawn” 38 “Move To” Location Functionality
