Both staff and students save time with Fame’s Virtual Financial Aid Office, and it frees up your Financial Aid staff members to do what they love to do—help students!
Other Virtual Financial Aid Servicers
While all Virtual Financial Aid Servicers want to accomplish the same goal, they do not have the full suite of software that innately connects with their Financial Aid — ensuring no manual work is required by your FAO. When students’ information is not updated, staff might get confused, become unmotivated, or worse (they may leave and/or your school may not be in compliance.)
Fame’s Virtual Financial Aid Office is natively integrated with our Student Information System (SIS).
