ROLL FORWARD REQUESTS

The application period is now closed for roll forward requests from the prior year’s funds.  

IRA funds are intended to be utilized during the academic year in which they are awarded and annually funded IRA programs are not intended to build reserves or carry forward funds from one fiscal year to another unless there is a compelling reason to do so.  Therefore, any remaining or unspent IRA funds from Academic Year 2024-2025 were swept in mid-August prior to new funds being added.
