MSU/CSUS To Lose Scholarships

The latest APR (Academic Performance Program) rankings have been released, and Montana State along with Sacramento State will both lose several football scholarships, with CSUS losing several other scholarships in various other sports as well. I believe these penalties go into affect today, but am not sure if you have to cut players with scholarships, or if you have to wait until a player leaves and you are simply not allowed to use that scholarship until the penalty timeframe is up. If someone could clarify that for me, it would be appreciated.

Montana State - Loses 3 football scholarships.
Sacramento State - Loses 4 football scholarships, 1 basketball, 1 baseball, and 2 in each of women's indoor track, women's outdoor track, and women's cross country.
Portland State - Loses 1 men's track scholarship.
