IM Connectivity Testing

Part of need analysis is determining what the student and their family can be expected to contribute to cover costs related to attending your school. This topic reviews how to test connectivity with the College Board for their INAS Cloud Service to calculate expected contributions from the student and their family using the College Board's Institutional Methodology (IM) formula and discusses how to:

• Setup the required PeopleTools Integration Broker Service Operation.

• Test your connection with the College Board.

Note:

The INAS Cloud Service is used to calculation IM for the 2024-2025 and future Aid Years.
