How to Authorize Federal Title IV Aid for Non-institutional Expenses

Federal Title IV financial aid funds (for example, Stafford loans, PELL, and PLUS loans) are restricted to payment of current period tuition, fees, room and board. Program regulations permit students to authorize the use of Title IV financial aid funds for non-institutional expenses such as books and supplies, parking expenses, campus debit systems such as the BASC Easy Money program, and fees such as the Gift to the Fund for Brockport, BSG, and transportation fees. Students may also authorize these funds for prior period expenses.
