PUBLICATION DATE: April 02, 2024
DCL ID: ANN-24-07
SUBJECT: Live Internet Webinar – Title IV Recertification (Sessions in May, July 2024)
SUMMARY: This letter announces an upcoming webinar from Federal Student Aid about the recertification process to maintain eligibility to participate in the Title IV programs. This webinar is for schools that are due to submit a recertification application by March 31, 2024, June 30, 2024, or Sept. 30, 2024.
Dear Colleague:
To continue participation in the Title IV programs, each school must submit a completed recertification application no later than 90 days prior to the expiration date of its Program Participation Agreement (PPA). To assist schools with completion and submission of the recertification application, we are offering a webinar on two different occasions, as described below. This training opportunity is specifically for schools that are due to submit a recertification application by March 31, 2024, June 30, 2024, or Sept. 30, 2024.
Note: As described in the Feb. 13, 2024 Electronic Announcement, in order to provide additional flexibilities for the 2024–25 award year, the Department is waiving the 90–day requirement for schools whose PPA expires in March, June, or September 2024. This means these schools have until their expiration day to submit a recertification application.
