2023–24 NATIONAL POSTSECONDARY STUDENT AID STUDY (NPSAS:24) Field Test
Student Data Collection and Student Records
Appendix H
Student Records Instrument
OMB # 1850-0666 v. 34
Submitted by
National Center for Education Statistics
U.S. Department of Education
September 2022
This appendix provides the 2023–24 National Postsecondary Student Aid Study (NPSAS:24) field test student records data collection instrument. The NPSAS:24 field test instrument remains largely unchanged from the instrument approved for NPSAS:20 data collection [OMB# 1850-0666 v. 25]. The changes noted below were developed based on the results of qualitative testing1 conducted in summer 2022, NPSAS:20 data collection, and input from the NPSAS:24 Technical Review Panel. Changes are intended to improve data quality while also reducing respondent burden.
Table 1 lists all instrument items in this appendix and indicates any changes to the content of the instrument when compared to the instrument approved for NPSAS:20, which is the student records instrument most recently in data collection. The table includes color coding to indicate whether items have remained the same (black), were revised (purple), removed (red), or added (green) when compared to the NPSAS:20 instrument. Items that refer to a specific date range have been updated with the appropriate dates for NPSAS:24 Field Test (e.g., all references to the academic year have been updated to apply to the 2022-2023 academic year, which is the focus of the NPSAS:24 field test); these updates to the date references are not marked as changes. NPSAS:20 data collection was interrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic and several items in the student records instrument were revised to address COVID-19 related disruptions of the 2019-2020 academic year [OMB# 1850-0666 v. 29]. For NPSAS:24 Field Test, these changes have been removed and item wording has reverted to the original, pre-COVID-19 NPSAS:20 wording; these updates are not marked as changes.

Institution Aid Program Type 2
Need-based aid is awarded based on an applicant's financial resources. Merit-based aid is awarded based on an applicant's academic achievement. Merit aid that was awarded without consideration of financial resources should be considered merit aid. However, if any part of the awarding criteria includes a student's financial resources, the aid is considered either “need-based” or “both need and merit-based.” Aid based on neither need nor merit may include an applicant's non-academic talents, demographic, or other characteristics as the awarding criteria.

[FOR TERM-BASED INSTITUTIONS: For each private or other federal government aid award received by the student, report the total whole dollar amount disbursed for [term1, term2, term3,...]. These are the terms your institution reported for the 2022-23 academic year on the NPSAS:24 Field Test Registration Page. If you have questions about these terms, please contact the Help Desk.
Report the total amount disbursed for these terms combined, not separate amounts for each term. If the student has aid for this period that has not yet been disbursed, include the whole dollar amount that you expect to be disbursed. For example, if you need to report aid for the Summer 2023 term but the aid has not yet been disbursed, include the amount awarded that you expect to be disbursed.]
[FOR CONTINUOUS ENROLLMENT INSTITUTIONS: For each private or other federal government aid award received by the student, report the total whole dollar amount disbursed for the 2022-2023 financial aid year (July 1, 2022 to June 30, 2023). If the student has aid for this period that has not yet been disbursed, include the whole dollar amount awarded that you expect to be disbursed.]
For additional guidance and examples, please see the Student Records Handbook, which is available on the Resources page of the PDP.
You may report up to 3 private or other federal government awards per student in this section. If the student was awarded more than three private or other federal government aid awards, you can report the award in "Other Aid" at the end of this section. Any non-federal government aid (such as awards from municipal governments or state aid not already reported in the State Aid section) should be reported in the Other Aid section.
