Section 33<br />

2004 - 2005 Final INAS - Functional<br />

Overview<br />

The 2004 - 2005 final version of INAS supports Federal Methodology processing.<br />

This includes the calculation of the FM Parent Contribution, FM Student<br />

Contribution, and the FM Expected Family Contribution, which is used to<br />

determine Pell eligibility. Prior to this release only beta code for Federal<br />

Methodology was available. In addition, this version of INAS continues to support<br />

Institutional Methodology. IM processing includes the calculation of IM Parent<br />

Contribution, IM Student Contribution, and IM Expected Family Contribution.<br />

Schools that use Institutional Methodology have two streams of data for their<br />

students - Federal and Institutional. The Federal data comes from the EDE/ISIR<br />

record. The Institutional data originates from a CSS PROFILE record, a record<br />

created using the copy FM to IM functionality, or a manually-entered record. Many<br />

times the two sets of reported data have different values for the same fields. The<br />

INAS program includes a process that compares the values between the two streams<br />

of data and produces a report of the fields where differences exist. There are global<br />

options called Compare Student Data and Compare Parent Data on INAS Global<br />

Policy Options Rules (RNRGL05) activating or deactivating this comparison<br />

process. Schools not using IM do not need the comparison report and should have<br />

these options set to N. If this option is set to Y, the comparison will be performed<br />

each time INAS is run, whether in batch or online mode. The default value is N.<br />

The following are the major modifications that were made to Final FM INAS:<br />

• Modified copybooks to support the Department of Education’s 2004 - 2005<br />

ISIR layout.<br />

• Modified programs to implement normal yearly table updates.<br />

• Updated the model determination dates, complete reject edits, and formula<br />

calculation sections of the system.<br />

• Allowing Official FM Results<br />

The final version of INAS that includes FM processing was not available at the<br />

time of the 2004 - 2005 Winter Regulatory <strong>Release</strong>. Therefore, FM INAS results<br />

were estimated. With the release of Final FM INAS, FM results are official<br />
