CENTRAL PROCESSING SYSTEM

Specialty Definition: CENTRAL PROCESSING SYSTEM

DomainDefinition

Federal Student Aid

ED's application data processing facility. The Central Processing System (CPS) uses information from the Free Application for federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to calculate the student's official Expected Family Contribution (EFC), creates and transmits to schools the Institutional Student Information Record (ISIR), and prints and mails to the student the Student Aid Report (SAR). A series of edits is used to check the consistency of family-supplied and student-supplied information. Eligibility matches are also conducted with the Social Security Administration, the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service, and the U.S. Selective Service. In addition, each student is checked against ED's own loan database. See also edit checks, federal output document, and National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS). CPS. (references)
