Education Levels

You can use the Education Levels page to configure the education levels that you can select on the Student Profile (Select the Students tile > select the name in the Students list.).

The Education Level list is used to categorize prospects (students) by their level of previous education and to associate the prospect types with the appropriate Ability to Benefit (ATB) codes. For students to receive Title IV funding, a valid ATB code must be associated with their records. Student records lacking a proper ATB code will fail validation at the Common Origination and Disbursement (COD) system. COD specifies valid ATB codes for each award year.
