Summary: October 1, 2008 Deadline for Submitting FISAP
We want to remind schools of the upcoming deadline for submitting the
Fiscal Operations Report for 2007-2008 and the Application to Participate
for 2009-2010 (FISAP) for the Federal Perkins Loan (Perkins Loan), Federal
Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG), and Federal Work-Study
(FWS) programs. As announced in the "Notice
of the 2008-2009 Award Year Deadline Dates for the Campus-Based Programs,"
published in the Federal Register on March 10, 2008 (73 FR 12718),
the date by which a school must submit this FISAP is Wednesday,
October 1, 2008.
All schools that wish to request funding under the campus-based programs
for the 2009-2010 Award Year, and all schools that had campus-based expenditures
for the 2007-2008 Award Year, are required to electronically submit a
FISAP via the eCampus-Based (eCB) Web
site. The eCB Web site allows
a school to complete and submit its FISAP online, receive real-time validation
edits, and access prior-year data to assist in completing the FISAP. For
information about accessing the FISAP on the eCB
Web site, refer to Dear
Colleague Letter CB-08-09.
The deadline for electronic submission of the FISAP is 11:59 P.M. (ET)
on October 1, 2008. Transmissions must be completed and accepted by 12:00
midnight.
Note: Submitting the FISAP by the October 1, 2008 deadline
is a critical program requirement. To comply with this program requirement
and ensure campus-based funding for the 2009-2010 Award Year, a school
must 1) electronically submit its FISAP via the eCB
Web site and 2) mail the signed hard copy of the combined certification
and signature pages for its FISAP to us as instructed on the eCB
Web site.
If you have any questions about the FISAP submission deadline, contact
the Campus-Based Call Center at 877/801-7168. Customer service representatives
are available Monday through Friday from 8:00 A.M. until 8:00 P.M. (ET).
