While the rollout of the 2024-25 FAFSA has been tumultuous, a new case study took a look at four states and their successful strategies to implement and employ FAFSA completion initiatives for the ongoing cycle.

The updated NASFAA Staffing Model now allows you to compare your staff size to similar institutions and get an analysis of where you stand. In the model you can also enter a number of variables that are statistically significant in determining staff size in financial aid offices, which will generate a custom report that measures your institution's staffing level against other institutions operating in similar circumstances. We encourage you to review the NASFAA Staffing Model Usage Guide to better understand the data used to calculate this output.

Providing students and families with clear and accurate financial aid offers has never been more important — especially in a year when there’s less time for students to make a decision on college enrollment. The College Cost Transparency Initiative (CCT) is a national movement of institutions committing to use a common set of principles and standards that ensure transparency, clarity, and understanding around communicating student financial aid offers. Interested in participating? Make sure to submit your commitment before August 31 for a chance to win one of three complimentary registrations to NASFAA 2025 in Anaheim!
