In March 2017, Federal Student Aid implemented the Pell Grant School Account Statement (SAS) and the Pell Grant SAS Disbursement Detail on Demand. In an April 13, 2017 Electronic Announcement posted on the Information for Financial Aid Professionals (IFAP) website, the Department provided additional information about how schools can format and print the Pell Grant SAS and/or Pell Grant SAS Disbursement Detail on Demand if the file is not able to be imported directly into the school’s Financial Aid software or mainframe systems.
Instructions for formatting Comma Delimited with Headers SAS files are posted on the April 13, 2017 Electronic Announcement, as well as the Common Origination and Disbursement (COD) Web Site and can be accessed by clicking on the “COD Resources” link located on the gray bar at the bottom of the home page.
