The EPC administrative window is the period during which applicants can make updates to their profile information including student counts, National School Lunch Program (NSLP) participation rates, library square footage, and the entities and individuals associated with your entity including consulting firms, in EPC to prepare for the upcoming FY2024 FCC Form 471 application filing window.
Each year, USAC updates applicant profiles in EPC using the reviewed and approved profile information from their current year FCC Forms 471. We do this so that applicants can start the application process for the upcoming funding year with information in their profiles that is accurate as of the date of their funding commitment decision letter (FCDL).
USAC has completed this process for applicants whose profile information was updated during the Program Integrity Assurance (PIA) review of their FY2023 applications. Applicants can now review their profiles and make any additional updates. Please note that EPC will be unavailable between October 30 and November 7.
The administrative window will open Tuesday, October 24, 2023 and will close shortly before the FY2024 application filing window opens in early 2024. After this time, applicant profiles will be locked and you will not be able to make changes to your profile information.
