Illinois Monetary Award Program (MAP)
Suspension of MAP Award Announcements for 2010/11 Effective April 19, 2010

The Illinois Student Assistance Commission (ISAC) is suspending the announcement of 2010-11 Monetary Award Program (MAP) grants for all students whose initial 2010-11 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is received by the Central Processing System (CPS) on or after April 19, 2010. The decision to suspend award announcements at this time is based on the Governor's proposed FY2011 budget and the fact that the number of eligible applications is 32 percent higher than in 2009-10.  However, this date can be changed and announced awards (estimated or actual) can be reduced or canceled at any time during the award year. 

Please note: Not all students who apply for student aid are eligible for it and to be considered for the MAP grant program you, as an Independent student, must have resided in Illinois one year prior to the start of the upcoming fall term (8/23/10) . If you are a dependent student the parent's whose information was required on the FAFSA must be a current Illinois resident.*
