Subject: NSLDS Professional Access – Upcoming January Enrollment Roster Dissemination
As we informed the financial aid community in earlier announcements, we resumed National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS®) Enrollment Roster processing in December 2022; however, we disseminated only some December Enrollment Rosters on schedule due to our identification of an issue. We resolved the issue and disseminated the remaining December Enrollment Rosters the first week of January 2023. To allow schools time to respond to the delayed December rosters, we explained that January Enrollment Rosters scheduled for dissemination during the period Jan. 1–15, 2023 would be held until mid-month.
We want to again acknowledge our appreciation of schools’ patience and understanding as we worked through issues. We are ready to disseminate all January Enrollment Rosters.
Dissemination of Off-Schedule January Enrollment Rosters
During the week of Jan. 16, 2023, we will send off-schedule January Enrollment Rosters to schools’ Student Aid Internet Gateway (SAIG) mailboxes.
The off-schedule January Enrollment Rosters will include the most current enrollment status information we have in NSLDS based on a school’s latest submittal.
As required by regulations, any errors on a school’s Enrollment Roster must be corrected by a school within 10 days of receiving its Error/Acknowledgement file. We are providing relief to schools in complying with this requirement because we are 1) sending January Enrollment Rosters off schedule and 2) planning to resume sending enrollment rosters per regular schedules in February 2023.
-
For Schools Scheduled to Receive February Enrollment Roster Feb. 1st – 10th – A school on this schedule is not required to make corrections to the off-schedule January Enrollment Roster. The school is required to check its February Enrollment Roster to ensure any errors no longer exist. If errors do exist in the February Roster Response file, the school must make corrections within the required 10 days.
-
For Schools Scheduled to Receive Enrollment Rosters After Feb. 10th but Within Next 60
Days – We understand that it may take a school on this schedule longer than 10 days to make corrections to the off-schedule January Enrollment Roster. The school is required to make corrections to the off-schedule January Enrollment Roster as soon as possible prior to receiving its next Enrollment Roster.
