Does the 6.6 Release include the e-signature functionality in Regent Access for new contributors?
The 6.6 Release will not include the e-signature functionality for the new ‘Student Spouse’ and ‘Parent Spouse/Partner’ contributors. Following current functionality, dependency logic will require student and parent (if required) signatures only. The 6.9 Release will include the remaining contributor e-signature functionality.
If a client uses ‘Primary EFC’ in queries to currently award, will the functionality continue to work?
For clients using ‘Primary EFC’ in queries to award currently, the functionality should continue to work. However once the query is opened/edited, clients will need to replace the ‘Primary EFC’ query property with the ‘SAI’ query property.
Is automatic ISIR importing available for 2024-2025?
Due to delays in the provision of technical guidance for the new TD Client version in support of the FTI-SAIG mailbox, the 6.6 Release does not support the 2024-2025 SAIG Mailbox integration. Initial TD Client upgrade and technical guidance was released in November, but the guidance was unclear or incomplete in some areas. Regent has submitted questions to the Department about specifics necessary for Regent to support client TDClient access to FTI-SAIG. Therefore, clients will not be able to download 2024-2025 ISIRs via the SAIG mailbox within Regent until the Department’s additional guidance is released. SAIG integration for prior years will continue to work as expected.

ED does not plan to have ISIRs ready to send to schools until late January 2024.
What documents do we need to configure for 2024-2025?
There is a new ‘2023-2024 and Prior Federal Award Years’ checkbox on the Document General Tab starting with Release 6.6. All currently existing documents in your system at the time of your upgrade to 6.6 or a later release will automatically include a one-time build script, which will set the checkbox to ‘checked’ for all existing documents in document configuration to apply for 2023-2024 and prior federal award years.
Clients must configure new document requirements for 2024-2025 document requirements for any documents for which assignment includes ISIR-related options. (Regent will be providing the standard verification documents for Regent Review clients), including if the requirements use any ISIR assignment options. However, this excludes Student Scoped documents that are not assigned by the ISIR. In this case, clients should not create a new 2024-2025 document.
Wait until you upgrade to 6.6 to configure 2024-2025 ISIR-assigned documents. Make documents because with the upgrade, the checkbox mentioned above will apply all existing documents for 2023-2024 and prior federal award years. When configuring 2024-2025 documents, make sure the ‘2023-2024 and Prior Federal Award Years’ checkbox on the Document General Tab is unchecked (default setting). All currently existing documents in your system at the time of your upgrade to 6.6 will automatically have this checkbox set to ‘checked’ and they will not apply to FAY 2024-2025 or future years
When adding a document for 2024-2025, is there a way to inactivate the older document so it does not appear in the dropdown list on the Document Tab?
Clients can use a naming convention such as adding a ‘zz’ to the beginning of the document name, so that the document will fall to the bottom of the dropdown list. However, it is important to recognize the student may see this document in their portal.
How does the ‘2023-2024 and Prior Federal Award Years’ checkbox on the Document General Tab affect documents that are not assigned by an ISIR?
Regent’s guidance is to create a new document for 2024-2025 and forward, except if the existing document is Student Scoped and not assigned by an ISIR.
Is Regent Award updated to calculate Pell with the new rules?
Regent will calculate Scheduled (full-year, full-time) Pell using the new rules for Maximum Pell, Calculated Pell, and Minimum Pell. As usual, 2024-2025 Pell awards will be estimated using the 2023-2024 amounts until such time as Congress determines the Maximum Pell Amount for 2024-2025. Typically this is updated within Regent as part of the Spring Regulatory Release but is dependent on the timing of the Congressional action. Current enrollment level treatment will apply until implementation of Enrollment Intensity Percentages for 2024-2025 Pell with the next release.
