PLUS Application

Student Financial Planning's integration with the Student Aid Internet Gateway (SAIG) Mailbox allows the student's PLUS Applications to be automatically imported and displayed on the user interface.

What Student Financial Planning Does Automatically

Student Financial Planning automatically does the following things:

Validates/Imports PLUS Application

When COD generates CRSP message class for a completed PLUS Application and transmits it through the SAIG Mailbox, Student Financial Planning recognizes, accepts and imports the files and displays them in the user interface. The system is designed to automatically receive the files at configured intervals.

Sends a Student Notification

Student Financial Planning automatically sends a student notification when an MPN is required based on Trigger configuration.

Closes Student Notification

Student Financial Planning automatically closes the open Student Notification after a PLUS Application is received or if a PLUS Application is no longer required. The Notification framework evaluates the clearing conditions every time the configured Required Trigger event is completed, for example, repackaging.

Creates Student History Entry

Student Financial Planning creates a Student History Entry when a PLUS Application(s) Default Overpay Code is overridden.
