Reviewing Overaward Amounts

A report is available to help you identify whether any students are in an overaward situation and to review disbursement information for students who are in an overaward situation. An overaward situation occurs when the student receives financial aid for an award period that exceeds the student's COA or need for that award period. This report lists students who have overaward amounts and contains information about their need and disbursements.

This section discusses how to generate the Overaward Report.
