What is it? • A tool that allows FAAs to view • a student’s SAR information, including the EFC (and intermediate values) • NSLDS information • SAR comments • FAA information
Yeah, but what else can I do with it? • Enter a student’s DRN to view a transaction without your school code • Print an individual SAR (in HTML or PDF) • Determine if a transaction is in signature hold status • Compare two transactions for the same student
Application Status This one tells you there are missing signatures
