[Oasfaa] IPEDS and tuition assistance

[Jordan, Pamela G. (HSC)]

I counted any tuition assistance from VA under that new section only.

Good Morning!!
I wanted to see how other schools are coding Tuition Assistance on the IPEDS. The call center told me yesterday not to include military TA anywhere else on the report now because they are asking for the information by itself.  The lady I spoke to also acted like I shouldn't have reported it last year because she said it's VA.

 I gave her the names of two different people at IPEDS that I had emailed and called last year about TA and the final decision was that it was Estimated Financial Assistance and not Veteran's Benefits and should be included.  They did give conflicting answers at first.

I guess I'll leave them out on the rest of the report as EFA this year but just wanted to know if any of you are reporting them differently.

Thanks and have a GOOD WEEKEND!!!
