I learned more about the Financial Aid process.
Learning how to support students in areas of placement.
What I took away from this lesson was that there are multiple levels of vertification when it comes to employment.
as an employee at a school were funding is mostly by student, we do not accept Financial Aid, I found it eye opening that that is what is
expected of higher education institutes. I always assumed that most colleges/institutes were mainly funded by Financial Aid.
Also, regulations to be set about non-starts, drops, withdrawals and LOAs. very informative.
I learned the significance of placement waivers for higher education institutions.
My takeaway is the Reauthorization Act of 1992 which in summary requires that no more than 90% of revenue be derived from Federal Student Aid fund sources. This was an eye-opener for me.
When a prospective student asks a question and you don't know the answer instead of saying I am not sure or I don't know it is better to tell him I will get the correct information to you.
Although multiple leaves are allowed, they can never exceed 180 days in any 12- month period.
During the training I learned that each institution accepts credits at their own discretion. As a student, I beleive that their should be a standard criteria for education across the board so that education is student centered. By allowing schools descretion, it costs students more money by repeating courses, and more time to accomplish thier accademic goals. By making courses in the same field unified, it makes educational aspects more clear for students.
