USA Funds Discontinues Paper SSCRs
USA Funds® no longer will supply paper Student Status Confirmation Reports to domestic schools.
The U.S. Department of Education in 1997 outlined final guidelines for transition of the SSCR process to an online National Student Loan Data System reporting procedure — eliminating the need for the paper SSCR process.
Since then USA Funds has provided paper SSCRs as a courtesy to schools that initially were unable to comply with the Department’s 1997 guidelines. In compliance with Department regulations, USA Funds now is discontinuing that practice and in early April distributed its last paper SSCRs.
If your institution has not completed the transition to the NSLDS enrollment reporting process, contact the NSLDS Customer Service Center at (800) 999-8219 to ensure that your school’s enrollment reporting is in line with applicable regulations.
Guidance from the Department regarding its mandated enrollment reporting is available in the Enrollment Reporting Guide. For more information about the change regarding the SSCR process, send an e-mail to USA Funds’ guarantor-servicer contact, David Wien, or call him at (317) 595-1262.
