NASFAA has created several flowcharts to help members visualize the process by which the Loan Limit Exception (LLE) Flag is set in various FSA systems for purposes of determining students' correct annual, aggregate, and lifetime loan limits. These flowcharts were created using information from the 2026-27 COD Technical Reference as well as information learned through communications with ED officials, and represent NASFAA's understanding of the LLE process flow as of the dates reflected in the documents.
