Athletics Financial Aid

You can use the Athletics Financial Aid report to generate financial aid information required by an athletic association, such as the NCAA. The report identifies special types of fund sources related to athletics.

If you frequently generate reports with the same selection criteria, you can save the selection criteria under a name. This makes it easier to create reports in the future with the same selection criteria.

Procedure to Generate the Report

  1. Specify the data selection criteria.

    Athletic StatusesClosed Specifies the athletic statuses for which the report is generated.

    Award YearsClosed The financial aid award year associated with the record.

    Campus GroupsClosed The group you specified for the campus. Your institution configures the groups for campuses.

    CampusesClosed The campus or campuses to which a person or item is assigned. It is filtered to display the campuses to which you have access. In some cases, it is also used to filter a list to only those items for the campus. In some lists, you can select more than one campus or select All. In lists that display columns, if the column contains more than one campus, you cannot sort or filter on that column.

    Exp Start DateClosed This field represents the student's expected first day of attendance. It is used for planning and reporting purposes. The value may differ from the actual start date if the student delays or defers. The field is often auto-populated based on the Version Start Date selected during application entry. It can also be manually adjusted during enrollment setup. From and To

    Grade LevelsClosed Select the grade levels for which you want to generate the report.

    Load Saved CriteriaClosed Select the saved criteria you want to load in the selection criteria fields.

    Program VersionsClosed The program version associated with the student or item.

    Student GroupsClosed The name of the student group. If you are selecting a group and your institution has configured Anthology Student to limit groups to campuses, you can only select groups for the campus to which you are assigned. If you are selecting a group, it can also be filtered to display groups where you are the owner, public groups, and private groups to which you have been given access.

    Student ID to PrintClosed Indicates whether you want to include the Student ID, Social Security Number, Enrollment Number, or None. Note: The ID is printed for each student selected for the report. Most reports have all three student IDs available to print on the report. The SSN is required on some reports. You must be authorized to view social security numbers (SSNs) and to select SSNs in the list. Reports about leads (prospects) do not have an Enrollment ID. The ID selection is not used for reports that do not list individual students.

    Student StatusesClosed Specifies the status of the prospect or student at your institution (school status). Statuses are configured by your institution and vary by institution. If you change the status for a student, a dialog is displayed so that you can confirm the change. If there are also tasks associated with the previous status, Anthology Student displays a dialog that you can use to select the tasks to keep and tasks to close with the result of canceled. The student’s status (e.g., Active) is determined by their status history and activation units. A populated Version Start Date does not automatically flip a student to Active unless paired with appropriate status progression. You can use the status values to filter student records in lists/grid, processes, and reports. The status for an alumnus can be complete or graduated.

  2. Take the appropriate action.

    Task Action to Take
    View the report

    1. Select the View Report button. Anthology Student displays the generated report.
    Export the report

    1. Select the Export to Excel button. Anthology Student displays the Export Report Data dialog.

      Export File NameClosed The name of the item (e.g., data set, batch, job, process, task, person, organization, entity, file).

    3. Select the Export button.

    Anthology Student exports the generated report as a CSV file, which may be viewed in Excel. In some cases, the exported file will contain additional data not displayed in the report on your screen.

    If you entered special characters like *, -, !, (, or ) in the report fields, Anthology Student automatically prepends an apostrophe to those field values upon export to Excel or CSV. The apostrophe is added to reduce vulnerability, as these characters are perceived by Excel as an actionable formula. Once the report is exported to Excel, Anthology suggests using find and replace on the characters only if necessary to restore original values.
