The Gift Assistance Budget Packet, to be used for schools that participate in ING, IVG and MAP, is available in both Portable Document Format (PDF) and Microsoft Word format. Schools that do not participate in the military programs should complete the Monetary Award Program Budget Packet. Only one type of budget packet needs to be submitted. The preferred method of submitting the budget packet is electronically as an attachment via the e-mail account of the Financial Aid Director.
 as a Microsoft Word 2000 document, and
 as an Adobe Portable Document Format (pdf) file
Using the Word Document
The Microsoft Word document can be saved to your computer so it can be completed electronically using Microsoft Word. (It can also be saved in other popular word-processing programs, including all versions of WordPerfect.) The completed document can then be returned to ISAC as an e-mail attachment from the Financial Aid Directors or by fax.
If an older version of Microsoft Word is used, and the Word document cannot be opened or saved, complete and submit the Adobe pdf file. Additionally, printer settings vary among computers and could cause the document to appear and print differently from one computer to the next.
Using the PDF File
Information cannot be added to the Adobe pdf file electronically; instead, it must be printed and completed by hand, and returned to ISAC via fax. The Adobe pdf file can be saved to your computer for future use or reference. Another option to consider when using the Adobe pdf file is to complete the document, scan the completed pages and return it as an e-mail attachment.
Adobe Acrobat Reader is required to access the pdf files. If you have trouble opening the file, you may need to download a newer version of the software. Adobe Acrobat Reader is free and freely distributable software that can be downloaded or upgraded through Acrobat’s Web site.
