Much has been said about the challenges of the FAFSA rollout last year and anxiety about FAFSA completion this year. In this session, we’ll step back from the FAFSA itself to discuss why this matters. We’ll share insight on the perceived value of postsecondary education, the increasing concerns about affordability, and the roles campus and community leaders can play in ensuring attainment and readiness goals are met through financial aid.
The rollout of the new “better” FAFSA in 23-24 was challenging for everyone – students, families, and those who support them. Delays and glitches exacerbated confusion over the form and the process and led to a nearly 10% drop in FAFSA completions over the previous year. There were, however, some positives, including a much simpler form for those able to complete it. In this session, we’ll share lessons learned and how student success, financial aid, and other professionals can support students.
Much like an auto mechanic, a registrar must understand how OTC systems work together to make registration run smoothly. When a car breaks down, it takes problem-solving to fix it. The same is true with our registration system! This session covers everything registration including waitlisting, instructor consent, prerequisites, online registration, late registration, moving students, and special situations. Faculty, staff and administrators can all benefit from this deep dive under the hood.
