What the demo shows
Aid offices check SAP appeals, documents and academic plans against school SAP policy
An Intake agent matches each appeal from the aid portal to its SAP evaluation and checks it is complete. A Policy agent tests GPA, completion rate and maximum timeframe against the school's SAP policy and 34 CFR 668.34 and cites each section. An Evidence agent reads the statement and the provider's letter or death certificate, ties their dates to the terms that failed, and shows the committee only what it needs, with medical detail masked. A Plan agent checks the advisor's academic plan with arithmetic, term by term, draws it as a runway against the minimums and the maximum timeframe, and proposes the smallest change that clears. The advisor signs the plan, a committee member decides, a second member signs any denial, and a counselor checks the record before it posts to the financial aid system.
