Review**](http://ifap.ed.gov/qadocs/ReturnTIVFundsModule/Activity1R2T4.doc)

**Why start with the student File Review?**

The file review will provide you the opportunity to review the
eligibility and awarding process at the student level. It will help you
assess what is working well and what needs improvement. Once you
identify areas that require further review and improvement, the
assessment will guide you to related activities to assist you in your
review process.

This activity will help you identify how well FSEOG student eligibility
requirements were met on an individual student level. Should you find
students who did not meet requirements, it may also lead to an update of
your policies and procedures.

Should you identify areas requiring a corrective action, we recommend
that you complete the [Management Enhancement
Worksheet](http://ifap.ed.gov/qamodule/MgtEnhancementWk.html)
