The Department received comments during the 60-day public comment period which was published in the Federal Register May 6, 2019 (Vol. 84, No. 87 page 19770) .
The Department thanks all that responded with comments to the Agency’s Information Collection for NSLDS. The information collected in NSLDS is vital to the Departments management and oversight of Title IV Financial aid programs. NSLDS functionality has expanded over the years as the Departments attempted to keep up with the needs of students and the community of financial aid professionals. To date NSLDS enhancements have been based on the suggestions and needs of our customers.
Summary of comments:
The Department should consolidate NSLDS and COD to simplify access and reconcile the current differences between the systems sometimes found in Pell LEUs.
Include the award year at the loan level on NSLDS
Don’t limit the comment codes for pre and post screening
Enhance the enrollment reporting process so that errors are easier to correct
These valued suggestions will be passed on to the team currently developing Next Gen FSA. Next Gen FSA will create an improved, world-class customer experience for FSA’s millions of customers, while creating a more agile, flexible model that will streamline FSA’s existing operations. Your comments will contribute to FSA Next Gen success.
No changes have been made to the system based on these comments at this time.
