Graduate Aid Redesign Project GARP Open Issues:
Revisit policy re: tuition charges to research accounts. I.e., In order to charge tuition to a research account, do we have to show a stipend charge? What happens when we have supplemental RA’s?
Do we want to have a category called "SU" for Supplemental Appointments? The idea would be to set up the package as a Supplemental Appointment.
Advantage of this approach: The implementation of RA/RN rules would be easier.
Why don’t we keep the year of study of graduate students on MITSIS? Some departments would like to capture this information. It is also a required data field for the NSF Report and would be useful for survey purposes. One possible approach would be to code them as follows: G1, G2, G3, etc.
Is there a way to get Chart of Accounts data into MITSIS prior to sending it to the Data Warehouse? Result: The lag time from where an account gets established to when it gets activated in MITSIS will be reduced.
How are stipend monthly amounts calculated? Based on 30 days? What is the formula?
Tuition assessment / proration tables: when an early termination occurs, we would like to pull out the tuition charge out of the tuition proration tables. Is this something that canbe easily done?
