Reviewing COD Setup

Before processing COD files, you must complete the appropriate COD award program setup options: Pell Payment, Direct Loans and ACG/SMART. Verify that you have done the setup indicated in the following table.

Warning! Do not change Pell ID Reporting values in the middle of an aid year. The Pell Grant payment and origination processes reference student awards which are in an Institution context and not directly related to a Pell ID. The Pell ID Reporting for Pell Grant processing is derived from the Institution using the Pell Payment Setup.
