1. Loans AOR Guidance
This document provides guidance and instructions for completing the Annual Operating Report (AOR) for the following HRSA programs: Health Professions Student Loans, Primary Care Loans (PCL), Loans for Disadvantaged Students (LDS), and Nursing Student Loans (NSL).
For information regarding the policies needed to manage the loan programs, please see the Student Financial Aid Guidelines (SFAG) which provides comprehensive information regarding the loan programs. The SFAG can be found at the following website: http://bhpr.hrsa.gov/scholarshipsloans/index.html.
Notes:
(1) Most cumulative fields will be automatically populated after the current data field is complete.
(2) Former allopathic and osteopathic HPSL loans are now part of the PCL program and as such grantees complete PCL AOR’s. However some questions request the separation of former allopathic and osteopathic HPSL data from the data regarding PCL grants with service requirements. Unless otherwise noted PCL program data should include both former allopathic and osteopathic HPSL and service required PCL program data.
(3) If loans have ever been disbursed to students, they must be reported on your Borrower
Accounts Worksheet; therefore, your report will not be considered complete if Page 6 of the report contains all zeros.
All data must be in agreement with your institution's general ledger records.
The following sections will provide instructions for some of the data elements on the AOR forms.

1.3 Program Accounts Section (Report Pages 2 and 3)
Values in cumulative fields are based on previous awards and reports.
ITEM A Federal Funds Awarded
This field is system generated and the amount is equal to the amount shown on the Notice of
Award for the current year.
ITEM B Cash Balance - Start of Report Period
The amount should be the same as the ending cash balance on the prior AOR. If it is not, provide the reason in the Comments section.
ITEM C1 Federal Funds Received/Receivable
This amount should be the cumulative net funds received that is equal to the total funds drawn each year from Payment Management System (PMS) minus any same year returns of funds to PMS.
NOTE 1: The return of any current year fund receipts (against the current year award) should be made through the Payment Management System (PMS).
NOTE 2: Money should be drawn down from PMS in whole dollars only. This amount includes the funds drawn against the current year award minus any returns and/or funds requested through PMS not received by June 30.
ITEM C2 Institutional Contributions Deposited
This amount should be the current amount of institutional contribution deposited. The cumulative amount must equal at least one-ninth of the cumulative FCC Funds received (Item C.1) plus any cumulative transfers from scholarships (item C.3) and less cumulative transfer to scholarships (Item D.2).
If an institution has exceeded its one-ninth requirement in a prior period and wishes to withdraw some or all of the monies (providing the withdrawal does not result in a negative cash balance), report the withdrawal as a negative amount in the current year column. DO NOT show the withdrawal of excess institutional contributions as a "Repayment to Institution."
ITEM C.3 Transferred from Scholarship Fund
This number remains constant. A cumulative total in this field was from funds added from the Scholarship Fund which no longer exists. However, this number is included when calculating institutional contributions
ITEM C.4 Load Principal Collected
This amount should be the current amount of loan principal collected from borrowers or purchased by the institution.
ITEM C.5 Interest Income Collected on Loans
This amount should be the current amount of interest on loan principal collected from borrowers or purchased by the institution.
ITEM C.6 Penalty Charges Collected on Loans
This amount should be the current amount of penalty charges collected from borrowers for late scheduled payment. The HPSL and NSL legislative amendments require that for NSL notes/disbursements signed on or after October 1, 1985, and for HPSL notes/disbursements signed on or after October 22, 1985, borrowers must be charged a late fee, not to exceed six percent on loans more than 60 days past due. See Policy Memorandum Number Ten (December
24, 1986) for additional information.
ITEM C.7 Investment Income
Policy Memorandum Number 6 (May 1984) states: ―When there is an unavoidable delay between the time a school receives HPSL and NSL Federal Capital Contributions or collections and the time new HPSL and NSL awards are disbursed, the school must place the funds on hand in an insured interest-bearing account, and must deposit all interest earned in the HPSL and NSL funds. A school that has not placed its investment income in the HPSL or NSL fund will be subject
to an audit exception, and will be required to reimburse the HPSL or NSL fund out of
institutional money for the amount of investment income that the school should have deposited in the HPSL or NSL fund in the past. ―All schools must assure that investment income is being properly handled in addition to the requirement of section 740 (b)(2)(e) of the HPSL statute and
section 835 (h)(2)(e) of the NSL statute that any earnings of the fund be deposited in the fund, this money can be an importance source of additional funds for lending to students.
Report the current amount of earnings on program Funds deposited in any type of interest- bearing account. You may not enter a negative number here.
ITEMS C.8, C.9, & C.10 Institutional Repayments of Bad Debts, Principal, interest, and Penalty
Charges
This amount should be the current amount of the institution’s repayment of principal, interest, and
penalty charges on bad debt write-offs requests that were denied
Institutions have the ultimate responsibility for bad debt losses not approved for write-off by the DSLS BHPr. There is nothing to prevent an institution from further pursuing the collection of a bad debt after it has been disapproved for write-off by DSLS; any amounts recovered would lessen
the institution’s liability.
ITEMS D1 Loaned to Students
Report the current amount of funds loaned to students.
ITEMS D2 Transferred to Scholarship Fund
This number remains constant. A cumulative total in this field was from funds transferred to the scholarship fund which no longer exists. However, this number is included when calculating institutional contributions.
ITEMS D3, D4, & D5 Repayments to Federal Government, Principal, Interest and Other Income
This amount should be the current amounts of this program’s principal, interest and other income
repaid to the Federal Government.
An example of Repayments to Federal Government is excess cash returned to the Division of Financial Operations. DO NOT include amounts returned to PMS because those amounts should be adjusted against Federal Funds Received within the appropriate award period.
Payment made last year for the PCL assessment should be reported on Page 2 – Program Accounts Section in Part D – Cash Disbursements Lines 3-5 – Repayments to Federal Government. In order to report your assessment in the three lines of the AOR (i.e., principal, interest, and penalty charges), apply the 30% assessment amount to the items defined as income (shown on your assessment notice) and report them in the appropriate sections.
For purposes of reporting, the amounts determined for penalty charges and investment income may be combined and reported as ―other income.‖ In addition, the school should repay itself the proportionate share of institutional matching funds (1/9) associated with the amount of funds returned for PCL. These amounts would be broken down the same way as Repayments to Federal Government, but reported on Lines 6-8 – Repayments to Institution, Principal, Interest, and Other Income.
Please refer to the Student Financial Aid Guidelines for further information. If you have any questions on your school's compliance, refer to Appendix A for contact information.
NOTE: Make check payable to Public Health Service and enclose a letter with the following information:
- Name of institution (including discipline)
- Type and purpose of program funds being remitted (e.g., Federal Capital Contribution – HPSL
program, remittance of student loan collections)
- The core Grant number (Box 4b on the Notice of Award)
- The amount of principal, interest, and other income, if any
- Send your remittance and letter using the Mailing Address Guidelines in Appendix B of the User
Guide.
ITEM D.6 Repayments to Institution, Principal
This amount should be the current amount of principal collected on student loans repaid to the institution.
Note: An example of a repayment to Institution would be the institution’s proportionate share of excess cash in the Fund balance that has been repaid to the institution. DO NOT show withdrawal of Funds as a result of excess institutional contributions in this item. (See note on item C.2.)
ITEM D.7 Repayments to Institution, Interest
This amount should be the current amount of interest collected on student loans repaid to the institution.
ITEM D.8 Repayments to Institution, Other Income
This amount should be the current amount of other income collected from student loans repaid to the institution.
Note: This item is in reference any amounts in Items C.6, C.7, and C.10 that were repaid in the
institution’s 1/9 portion in conjunction with a repayment to the Federal Government.
ITEMS D9, D10, D11, and D12 Collection Agent Costs, Principal and Interest Litigation Costs, Principal and Interest
This amount should be the current amount of allowable internal or external collection agent costs
(prorated proportionately to the amount of principal and interest collected) charged to the Fund.
This amount should be the current amount of litigation costs (prorated proportionately to the amount of principal and interest collected) charged to the Fund. These costs do NOT include expenses incurred in sending the final demand letters on attorneys’ letterhead.
The cost associated with collecting the full amount of principal and interest (Items C4 and C5) must be prorated and reported in Items D9 and D10. Litigation costs associated with the collection of a loan must be prorated in the same manner as collection costs and reported in Items D11 and D12. This method of reporting is required even if the collection agency and/or attorney remit only the net amount (collections less collection or litigation costs) to the institution. If the institution is able to get the borrower to pay the collection costs or the litigation costs, the costs are not charged to the fund.
Note: Refer to Policy Memorandum Number Nine (May 16, 1986) for an explanation of allowable collection costs. Collection costs may be charged to the HPSL/NSL Fund without requesting prior written permission from the Bureau of Health Professions, Division of Student Loans and Scholarships as long as your school is following sound due diligence procedures. If the Bureau finds that a school is charging collection costs to the Fund without having exercised due diligence, the school will be required to reimburse the Fund for those charges.
Report the current amount of allowable internal or external collection agent costs (prorated proportionately to the amount of principal and interest collected) charged to the Fund.
Report the current amount of litigation costs (prorated proportionately to the amount of principal
and interest collected) charged to the Fund. These costs do NOT include expenses incurred in sending
the final demand letters on attorneys’ letterhead.
EXAMPLES OF PRORATING COLLECTION COSTS (Litigation Costs to Be Prorated in Same Manner)
An institution directs a collection agency to collect $1,000.00 principal and $200.00 interest for a total of
$1,200.00 from a delinquent borrower. The collection agency collects all $1,200.00 but deducts $360.00, or 30% of the amount collected, before remitting the net amount of $840.00 to the institution. The institution reports as follows:
Loan Principal Collected $1,000.00
Interest Income Collected |
200.00 |
Collection Costs, Principal (30% x $1,000) |
300.00 |
Collection Costs, Interest (30% x $200) |
60.00 |
|
|
An institution directs a collection agency to collect $1,500.00 principal and $500.00 interest for a total of
$2,000.00 from a delinquent borrower. At the end of the report period, the collection agency has collected
$1,600.00 (80% of $2,000.00), which it remits to the institution with a bill for $480.00 (30% of the
$1,600.00 collected). The institution pays the collection agency $480.00 taken from the Fund and reports as follows:
Loan Principal Collected (80% of the $1,500) |
$1,200.00 |
Interest Income Collected (80% of $500) |
400.00 |
Collection Costs, Principal (30% of $1,200) |
360.00 |
Collection Costs, Interest (30% of $400) 120.00
ITEM D13 Credit Bureau Fees
This number should be the current amount of credit bureau agency fees charged to the Fund
ITEM D14 Other costs
This amount should be the amount of other costs charged to the fund (i.e., overpayments and underpayments of $10.00 or less).
Note: DO NOT include administrative costs such as BILLING AGENCY COSTS, SALARIES, STAMPS, BANK CHARGES, and the like incurred by the institution in the management of the loan Fund. They are considered general administrative costs that are the responsibility of the institution.
ITEM E. CASH BALANCE - End of Period Covered by This Report
Note: This amount should be equal to the current year beginning cash balance plus current year cash receipts minus current year cash disbursements. The cumulative cash receipts less the cumulative cash disbursements should also equal the ending cash balance. This amount should be equal to the actual cash on hand and in the institution’s bank account (adjusted for Funds in transit on June 30).

If worksheet Line L or M on Page 4 of the report is equal to or less than zero, your school does not have excess cash at this time.
If worksheet Lines L and M on Page 4 of the report are greater than zero, the smaller amount will be selected as your excess cash and moved to Page 5, Line H.3. That is your excess cash amount.
IF Y O U’RE SCHOOL DID NOT DRAW DOWN FUNDS FROM PMS
The lesser of Lines L and M on Page 4 of the report is used to determine the Federal share of excess cash. Except for Allopathic and Osteopathic Medicine reports, the amount is automatically
calculated and placed on Page 5, Line H.3. Return this amount to the Division of Financial Operations.
IF YOUR SCHOOL DID DRAW DOWN FUNDS FROM PMS
An amount equal to the amount drawn down should be returned to PMS. Except for Allopathic and Osteopathic Medicine reports, this amount is automatically entered in item H.2 on Page 5 of the report. Do not forget to adjust your PMS quarterly report to reflect this return of the Federal cash. The Federal portion of any remaining excess cash is automatically calculated (except for Allopathic and Osteopathic Medicine) and entered in item H.3 of page 5.
Excess cash for all active schools is calculated according to the formula below: A. Excess Cash (smaller of work sheet Line L or M)
B. Federal Award for this reporting period

E. Federal Share of excess cash (D * .90)
1.5 Check List / Questions (Report Page 5)
ITEM H.1 Default Rate
The default rate is automatically calculated from data reported on page 6. It should be noted that if two AORs are required, then the HPSL AOR must be completed first. If an LDS AOR is then completed, the default rates from the two programs are combined and a mathematical calculation is applied to the sum totals. IF the default rate for a school exceeds 5%, then the school is liable to be suspended.
Note: Programs with shared disciplines from both HPSL and LDS reports will not see the combined default rate until data from both reports have been entered.
ITEM H.2 Excess Cash Returned to PMS (Applicable to ACTIVE programs only)
This amount should be the Fund receipts against the current award that were unused and returned to the Payment Management System (PMS) during this reporting period. Amounts reported in this item should be remitted directly to the PMS.

Using the BASE DATA items above:
Step 1: Calculate the Federal Government’s percentage contributed to the Fund:
Federal percentage (F %) = (A.1 + A.3 – A.4) / (A.1 + A.2 + A.3 –A.4)
Step 2: Calculate the total amount due the Federal Government: Total Amount Due Federal Government = F% x B.1
Step 3: Calculate the portion of the Total Amount Due Federal Government which is
Other Income:
Other Income = [F% x (A.6 + A.7 + A.9)] – A.14
Step 4: Calculate the portion of the Total Amount Due Federal Government which should be interest:
Interest = [F% x (A.5 + A.8 – A.10 – A.11 – A.12 – A.13)] – A.15
Step 5: Calculate the portion of the Total Amount Due Federal Government which should be principal:
Principal = Total Amount due Federal Government minus Interest minus Other
Income
Note: The Federal Government will always recover its proportionate share of any interest, penalty charges, and investment income collected (less its proportionate share of expenses) before any repayments are applied to principal. Once the initial interest amounts have been recovered, Work Sheet #2b, Version 2 that follows may be used to determine principal, interest, and other income repayments for each current period.

1.6 Borrower Accounts Worksheet (Report Page 6)
In completing this section, you must use the status of all borrower accounts as of the end of this reporting period — not just the accounts that changed status during this reporting period.
The total number of borrowers reported on Page 6 should never be lower than the number on the prior
year’s report.
Borrowers who have renegotiated their repayment schedules are to be included in the "current" category provided they are making their renegotiated payments on time.
Any borrower whose repayment becomes more than 60 days past due must be placed on a monthly repayment schedule and assessed a penalty charge.
A borrower in default who has made sporadic payments must remain in the default category.
Even though the borrower has received more than one loan, the borrower must be counted only once in Column 1. If a borrower has more than one loan, the borrower must be categorized according to the longest overdue loan.
Regardless of which category the borrower is placed in, the school must show the dollar amounts for each loan according to the actual status of the loan. Within the same loan, if there are payments overdue in different time frames, report that loan according to the longest overdue payment.
Schools should report the TOTAL OUTSTANDING LOAN BALANCE (as defined below) in default when State law permits them to enforce the acceleration clause in a BHPr-approved promissory note and demand for the entire balance has been made. If some of the borrower's promissory notes contain an acceleration clause, and some do not, determine the past due under each type of promissory note separately and report the sum of those amounts as determined from the individual notes.
TOTAL OUTSTANDING LOAN BALANCE equals the sum of the borrower's original amounts of all loans (Column 2) minus any amounts that have been repaid (Column 3) and minus any amounts that have been cancelled for employment/professional practice (Column 4).
Columns: Number Description of Required Information
1. Number of Borrowers Under this program - The number of borrowers who received loans.
2. PRINCIPAL LOANED – The dollar amount of loan principal disbursed.
3. PRINCIPAL REPAID – The dollar amount of loan principal repaid.
4. PRINCIPAL CANCELLED FOR EMPLOYMENT/PROFESSIONAL PRACTICE – The dollar amount of loan principal cancelled for employment
Note: Applies to Nursing Set Aside Program Loans incurred prior to September 29, 1979; and for those borrowers whose health professions loans for the study of medicine, dentistry, osteopathy, or optometry were incurred prior to November 19, 1971. Loan cancellation to borrowers in professional practice and nursing employment is no longer permitted. The cumulative numbers remain as historical data of loan cancellations granted when they were permitted.
5. PRINCIPAL CANCELLED FOR DEATH/DISABILITY - The dollar amount of loan principal cancelled due to the death or permanent and total disability of the borrower.
6. PRINCIPAL DELINQUENT - The dollar amount of loan principal that is in default. Include only the amount of those payments that are in default.
7. PRINCIPAL UNCOLLECTIBLE NOT PAST DUE - The dollar amount of loan principal not past due which the school has determined to be uncollectible after exercising due diligence in the collection of loans. DO NOT duplicate any of these amounts in column 8.
8. PRINCIPAL OUTSTANDING BUT NOT DUE - The dollar amount of loan principal outstanding but not yet due according to the original or renegotiated repayment schedule. DO NOT duplicate any of these amounts in column 7.
9. PRINCIPAL WRITTEN OFF - The dollar amount of loan principal which has been written off pursuant to receiving written authorization, plus the dollar amount reflected in institutional write-off of loans under $3000.00 with due diligence, minus any subsequent collections received from a borrower whose loan was approved for write off.
10. CAPITALIZED INTEREST — Report capitalized interest for any borrower defaulting on the primary care loan service obligation. This figure represents the recalculation of the interest on the loan back to date of disbursement and should not be decreased by amounts paid against the interest capitalized. (This figure should also be included in columns 3 through 8 as appropriate.) Interest that is capitalized is considered loan principal; therefore, edit checks will verify that the sum of column 2 and 10 equal the sum of columns 3 through 9
