Welcome to FAS’ CEO Corner

At FAS, we believe your financial aid office and student business services should be activated to become your top advantage, generating greater enrollment, easier operations, and an elevated brand.   To achieve those goals, leaders need trusted sources for innovation and insight.  That is our intent for this “CEO Corner” of Innovations + Insights – to create a hub for emerging trends, case studies, creative ideas, and innovations that power new possibilities for you, our clients, and the students you serve.

Hosted by our CEO, Robert Heil, with both original and shared material, this is forward-thinking content that is relevant and practical for university Presidents, CFO’s, VP’s, Board members, and higher ed CEO’s.  No matter how great the challenge, the solution is within you.  It often just requires the right insight and innovation to unlock the solution.  Doesn’t every leader want to discover that?

Our mission at FAS is to empower colleges and universities to strengthen their financial operations, optimize enrollment, and enhance the student experience.  That mission is significant.  We’re not chasing small aspirations.  FAS was founded on an innovative approach and this same spirit of innovation propels us to new ways of thinking today.

Trusted by over 1,800 university clients and fortified with over 1,600 years of industry experience, we uncovered the most successful models and frameworks that can be applied to any campus.  Whether you are traversing necessary strategy shifts or navigating operational challenges, our aim is to share a compelling inside view on how to strengthen your advantage.
