If an applicant’s previous Fee Assistance Program application results in an investigation report being issued, the applicant will not be eligible to apply to the Fee Assistance Program for the next three application cycles.
The first Fee Assistance Program application cycle the applicant would not be eligible for is the application year in which the investigation report was issued. Please be aware that this might not be the same year that the Fee Assistance Program application that resulted in an investigation report was submitted.
This policy was implemented retroactively as of March 31, 2023. Therefore, applicants who had a Fee Assistance Program investigation report issued in calendar year 2020 or earlier will be eligible to apply to the 2024 Fee Assistance Program as of March 31, 2023.
