The data submitted electronically in
the Fiscal Operations Report and Application to Participate (FISAP)
through FISAP on the Web is used by the Department of Education to
determine the institution's funding need for the award year and
monitor program effectiveness and accountability of fund
expenditures. The Reallocation form is part of FISAP on the Web.
The Higher Education Amendments (HEA) requires that if an
institution anticipates not using all of its allocated funds for
the Perkins, Federal Work Study (FWS), and Federal Supplemental
Education Opportunity Grant (FSEOG) programs by the end of an award
year, it must specify the anticipated remaining unused amount to
the Secretary. In addition to renewing the expiration date,
references to dates and award years dates have been updated on the
forms and in the instructions for both documents. The FISAP form
has been revised: 1) to use technology to gather existing data
electronically from other sources requiring less data entry
concerning Additional Institutions in Part I; 2) per discussions
with OMB staff on 11/26/12 with concurrence on 11/30/12 to allow
applicable aggregate level data entry concerning graduate and
professional students for schools with non-traditional academic
calendars; and 3) per OMB staff request and discussions on 8/21/12
with concurrence on 8/24/12, to expand the income grid in the Part
VI summary to collect a more concise breakdown of student data at
the aggregate level.
