<p class="MsoNormal">Good afternoon presidents and chancellors:<span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I want to provide a recap of this week’s financial aid award processing activities.<span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It’s been a big, difficult week for your respective financial aid teams, and you can be very proud of their efforts.<span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">On Monday, June 10, colleges began loading ISIRs to begin awarding aid. Most colleges loaded their ISIRs Monday, with the remaining colleges completing this activity Tuesday morning. Colleges may continue to load ISIRs daily if they choose
to. <span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">On Wednesday, June 12, at 11:30 a.m., all colleges were informed via Webex and email that they could activate their 2025 jobsets if they felt ready, and 18 colleges did so:<span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<ul style="margin-top:0in" type="disc">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-top:0in;margin-bottom:6.0pt;mso-list:l3 level1 lfo1">
Eight colleges experienced failures due to local security role issues or problems with the Washington College Grant (WCG) Pop Update process.
<span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-top:0in;margin-bottom:6.0pt;mso-list:l3 level1 lfo1">
Ten colleges successfully executed their jobsets and moved to awarding students on Thursday morning. The colleges that successfully ran their 2025 jobsets on Wednesday evening now have significant numbers of students to award.<span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></li></ul>
<p class="MsoNormal">On Thursday, June 13, colleges were asked to pause running new 2025 jobsets in the evening due to an issue with the WCG Pop Update of the job process. The SBCTC Financial Aid Support and Application Services teams identified and tested
a resolution, which went into production shortly before noon today, Friday, June 14.
<span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Once the fix was validated by the SBCTC Financial Aid Support team, college FA staff were notified during the support Webex they could resume their 2025 jobsets this evening.
<span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As of this afternoon, 12 colleges have now awarded financial aid in ctcLink production!
<span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">During the daily support Webex today, Friday, June 14, the FA community evaluated its support needs for the week ahead. Colleges are asked to block out June 17-18 and June 20-21 for the same times as this week (9 a.m. to noon, and 1 to
4 p.m. daily). June 19 is a holiday. The SBCTC Financial Aid Support team will follow up with additional information and resources to the financial community after the close of the Webex today. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Please reach out if you have any questions.<span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you,<span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
