1.	Record Type: G99ATV - This record would be sent with transactions that do not strictly adhere to any of the four approved FASTER formats (Interdistrict, Secondary, Technical Center, or Postsecondary).
2.	National Record Type: ATV - This record is used to provide the receiving institution with information concerning the student's activities and awards.
3.	The presence of LOW-VALUES in data fields causes significant problems for several institutions in the receipt of student records. A transaction will be rejected if non-displayable characters are sent in the data unless found in Filler Reserved for Local Use. Please use some other appropriate character (e.g., SPACES) with which to initialize your records before sending them.
4.	Special characters, tilde (~), caret (^), and grave accent (`), are used as delimiters in the translation of FASTER to SPEEDE/ExPRESS. They are reserved symbols and as such cannot be included in data sent through FASTER to a SPEEDE/ExPRESS institution.
