When will the Verification Worksheet (VWS) be available?

The Verification Worksheet (VWS) will NOT be available until the 6.10 Release, special consideration is needed for ISIRs that are flagged for verification and imported prior to 6.10. Please refer to the Product Brief for more information.

 

Prior to importing ISIRs for 2025-2026 (whether with 6.9.1 Release or 6.10 Release), should Regent Review Verification Worksheet documents be configured?

Yes, Regent Review Verification documents provided by Regent MUST be configured regardless of which release (6.9.1 or 6.10) the client will begin importing ISIRs for 2025-2026. ISIRs for the new aid year should not be imported into Regent Award until ALL Document Setup is complete. A list of standard Regent Review documents for client use are provided in the Product Brief.

Important: If clients choose to import ISIRs in the 6.9.1 Release, clients will need to update the document scope setting for the following documents from All Federal Award Years to 2024-2025 only. When the Verification Worksheet Smart Form is available, the setting will need to be changed back to ALL Federal Award Years or add 2025-2026 to the already configured 2024-2025.

  • Verification Worksheet (VWS)

  • Verification Worksheet (VWS)-Change

  • Verification Worksheet (VWS)-Revised Request

  • Verification Worksheet (VWS)-V5

 

Was the Unsub Only question removed from the 2025-2026 Regent Access Master Questionnaire?

Yes, as agreed upon by Regent Access clients, the ‘Unsub Only’ question has been removed from the 2025-2026 Access Questionnaire. The CSV file layout is unaffected.

 

If clients do not want to send or receive 2025-2026 ISIR files automatically, should 2025-2026 message classes be deactivated?

Yes, as in prior years, the non-COD message classes that were Active for 2024-2025 within Regent Award will automatically be made Active within Regent for the 2025-2026 year. However, clients should review, as some ISIR corrections may need to be re-enabled if they were disabled for 2024-2025. If you do not want to send/receive 2025-2026 ISIR files automatically, please be sure to DEACTIVATE those 2025-2026 message classes until such time as you have configured your 2025-2026 document requirements and are ready to process 2025-2026 ISIRs.

 

How is Regent providing clients with the required data to prepare reporting in compliance with the “Gainful Employment and Financial Value Transparency” regulations?

Regent has created a new user permission and new export process so users can specify parameters for the Financial Value Transparency & Gainful Employment Reporting – Student Detail and the Financial Value Transparency & Gainful Employment Reporting – Program Summary outputs. Clients or their Third Party Servicers will determine the means of selecting and summarizing Regent data. The exported data, along with additional information outside of Regent, can be combined for client submission to ED.
