Anticipated Aid Eligibility Requirements

PowerFAIDS has built-in eligibility checks that run in the background as part of the Anticipated Aid Export process. These checks prevent the record from being included in an anticipated aid export file.

Student Eligibility Checks

These checks are performed on all students included in the population for which the anticipated aid export process is being run.

Check Performed	Logic	Message if Fails
Student ID Exists	The Student ID field is not blank.	A student ID is required for anticipated aid export.
Payment Period Exists	At least one of the Payment Periods selected for disbursement is assigned to the student record. Example: Selecting payment periods Fall 2024 and Spring 2025 are selected as the Payment Periods. If a student record has Fall 2024, Spring 2025, or both (regardless of the Academic Year) then the record will pass. If they have neither, then the record will fail.	None of the payment periods selected are associated to the student.
