Manually Add a Non-Federal Fund

You can manually add Non-Federal Funds to the student's package through the Student Financial Planning UI.

Overview

Simply select the type of non-federal fund and the associated award year. Upon the request to add the non-federal fund to the student's package, Student Financial Planning runs an initial eligibility check (based on configuration). You can immediately see if student record fails any of the configured eligibility checks. It is important that you also check any eligibility criteria that isn’t configured to be checked by SFP before certifying the fund is eligible. If the user fails any of the eligibility items, you can bypass the configured check and continue by certifying the student is eligible for the fund.

When you certify the student is eligible for the fund, Student Financial Planning displays the data fields. Enter all the required data for each individual period and add more periods if necessary and then save. Once the fund has been added and the student record is repackaged, you can see the non-federal fund in the student's package.
