NASFAA UPDATES AND ANNOUNCEMENTS

For students and parents interested in learning more about financing an education beyond high school, financial aid nights can be an invaluable source of information. NASFAA's financial aid night toolkit has recently been updated with information for the 2022-23 academic year and is now available to assist NASFAA members in conducting or providing support for these presentations. In the toolkit you'll find a slideshow designed to give students and families a basic understanding of financial aid concepts, sources of financial aid, and the application process for federal student aid. The toolkit also contains a guide to planning and conducting a financial aid night, as well as updated versions of supplemental student and parent handouts to help you give a compelling and informative presentation. The content may be presented in person or virtually.

The Distance Education and Innovation Final Rules published Sept. 2, 2020 made numerous changes to satisfactory academic progress (SAP) and return of Title IV (R2T4) requirements for programs offered in modules. Join us Wednesday, September 29 at 2:00 p.m. ET, as we review key SAP changes you may have missed, as well as frequently asked questions from our previous R2T4 webinar. During this webinar we will briefly discuss a few issues specific to clock-hour programs, however we will primarily focus on term-based credit-hour institutions, particularly those with modules. Register now.
