The application deadline to participate in the 2021-22 campus-based financial aid programs is now more than a month away with the Department of Education extending the deadline to November 2.

In a September 24 Electronic Announcement, the Department reminded schools about the new deadline and also warned that campus-based funds will be reduced to zero if they fail to submit the Fiscal Operations Report for 2019-20 and the Application for 2021-22 (FISAP) by that date.

In the Announcement, the Department said all schools requesting Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG) and Federal Work-Study (FWS) program funds for the 2021–22 Award Year and/or that had either FSEOG and FWS expenditures or Federal Perkins Loan (Perkins Loan) activity for the 2019–20 Award Year are required to electronically submit a FISAP via the Common Origination and Disbursement (COD) website.

The deadline for electronic submission of the FISAP is 11:59 p.m. Eastern time (ET) on Nov. 2, 2020. Transmissions must be completed prior to midnight. Additionally, the signature page must be printed, signed, and mailed by the Nov. 2, 2020 deadline.
