NEWS FROM NASFAA

After months of hard work and feedback from various stakeholders — as well as guidance from a working group of financial aid, admissions, and enrollment management practitioners, including several NASFAA members — the Paying for College Transparency Initiative has produced the following documents and would like NASFAA members to submit comments, concerns, or suggestions as they head into their final steps to finalize the products. Please submit your feedback no later than June 1, 2023.

Sen. Mike Braun (R-Ind.) on Tuesday reintroduced legislation that would amend a section of the Higher Education Act (HEA) and eliminate origination fees on federal direct student loans, which he says “adds unnecessary debt to student borrowers and worsens our national debt posture.”

Kristi Jovell

With NASFAA’s 2023 National Conference just a few months away, Today’s News caught up with Kristi Jovell, chair of the 2023 Conference Program Task Force and NASFAA’s national chair-elect for the 2023-24 year, on what members can expect.
