About Upload F/A Awards for PowerFaids Institution
For institutions using the Campus Cafe financial aid module this function is intended to upload institutional scholarships. It is not designed to upload federal financial aid. Awards uploaded through this method are not factored into cost of attendance. Uploaded awards are are limited to one disbursement per award per semester.
For institutions not using the Campus Cafe financial aid module, this function may, depending on the institution's business processes, facilitate the placement of financial aid awards contained in a spreadsheet on student records.
Info |
---|
Federal financial aid uploaded through this method will not generate COD documents, and will not be able to follow Campus Cafe's financial aid origination/disbursement processes. |
For institutions using PowerFaids, this function allows the import of awards from PowerFaids (non-cloud version). This process is dependent on the institution having he ability to run a SQL statement against its PowerFaids database. [PowerFaids requires a separate contract with College Board.]
For institutions using a third-party financial aid servicer, the institution should consult with Campus Cafe support prior to using this function.

Prerequisites
Campus Cafe financial aid award codes must be configured and each code must be tried to a transaction code.
If using PowerFaids custom tables in the PowerFaids database must be created to hold translations between the PowerFaids Periods of Enrollment (POEs) and Campus Cafe semesters and the PowerFaids award tokens and the Campus Cafe award codes. Campus Cafe support can assist with the creation of these tables.
