Discover the Staffing Strategy to Elevate Your Financial Aid Office

FAFSA Simplification is significantly disrupting the student experience, enrollment goals, and financial aid operations. The campuses who are better prepared will have an advantage recruiting and retaining their students. This year’s compressed timelines create a narrow window for colleges and universities to process financial aid offers so students can make decisions. Even financial aid offices at full capacity will likely need additional resources to manage the compressed timelines. The challenge is greater for the many financial aid offices that are already underresourced. Your ability to navigate these changes confidently starts with a staffing model that supports your goals.
