- Updated the Direct Loan, Pell Grant, and TEACH Grant modules to report a value of “US” for the Country Code field to the COD System if the student is a resident of a U.S. territory, including residents of Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, and American Samoa.
- Corrected a Pell Grant multiple entry issue that triggered an error message when attempting to update the Enrollment Intensity value for multiple records.
