As part of its ongoing commitment to diversity and inclusion, NASFAA is launching a new Diversity Leadership Program (DLP) aimed at advancing the careers of individuals from identified under-represented groups in the association—and creating a strong and diverse pipeline for association leadership. The DLP will provide the six selected participants with a robust portfolio of benefits, mentorship, and guidance on how to develop as a financial aid association leader at the state, regional, and national level. Please refer to the DLP webpage for more information about program benefits, the applicant selection process, and eligibility criteria. Applications are due Sunday, Sept. 30, 2018.

Every year since 2004, when Sen. Robert Byrd (D-WV) slipped a provision into a spending bill creating Constitution Day, higher education institutions have offered educational programs about the Constitution on September 17 in order to remain eligible for Title IV funding. There are lots of ways to go about celebrating it. Some schools set up displays about Constitution Day in the library on their campuses, others set up table tents in college cafeterias, while others choose to print and pass out bookmarks to get the word out about the day. How is your school planning to celebrate? Share pictures of how your campus is celebrating with NASFAA on Facebook, or by emailing [email protected].

The purpose of this presentation is to provide financial aid administrators, mentors, and counselors with screen shots that can be used as a reference tool for the 2018–19 myFAFSA. This information can be used for internal staff training or other outreach activities.
