Code indicating the status of a particular award for a particular student.

Examples of aid fund status codes are "ACPT (Accepted)", "OFFR (Offered)", "DECL (declined)".

When an award is submitted via the Award Processing Form it is in an accepted status (ACFP or ACGP) with a description of "Approved." Once the central office has processed the award it is still in an "Accepted status (AC)" with a description of "Assigned."

Aid fund status codes can be changed when necessary. For example, an aid fund status of "AC (Accepted)" could be changed to "CANC (Cancelled)" by a central office. If a student declines an award in Minerva the (AC) status changes to "DECL (Declined)".

The aid fund status code description will appear within the BSA forms, on the web and in selected reports. Most descriptions are viewable on the web by students when they check the status of their financial aid awards on Minerva.

A grouping of financial aid terms that can identify particular parts of a year in which students may be enrolled.

Examples include: Fall/Winter, Spring/Summer, full year, summer only, etc.

At 成人VR视频 we have decided to create only one aid period covering the entire Aid Year. This Aid period is being called 鈥淵EAR鈥�.

A complete year for which the Student Aid is being tracked. 成人VR视频 defines an aid year as September to August 31st of the following year. For example, aid year听1819 would run from September 1, 2018 to August 31, 2019.

Awards that have not been disbursed may be cancelled. Central Aid Offices revise the status to allow award processors the ability to process the cancellation in Minerva.

Schedule of award payments. An award may be paid all at once or in multiple, pre-established pay dates to student fees (Accounts Receivable) or to direct deposit or cheque (Accounts Payable).

A disbursement schedule is normally attached to an aid fund when it is created by a central office. This is called a default disbursement schedule. Default disbursement schedules may be changed or "customized" when submitting awards via the Award Processing Form (APF).
