SUPPORTING FAIR, EQUITABLE, AND SUSTAINABLE FINANCIAL AID

Programs for Schools

Financial aid is often the second most important line item in a school’s operating budget. And if you are tasked with ensuring its fair and sustainable distribution, you likely face challenges, particularly in this climate of increased scrutiny and family complexities. We understand applicant assessments are just one part of your role. Our specialized financial aid programs can help alleviate your workload and keep your school competitive and agile in today’s rapidly changing waters.

FOLDER REVIEW PROGRAM

Anchored in Expertise to Assess Today’s Families

Does navigating family finances feel like sailing stormy seas? Swells of complexity can set your reviews and award decisions adrift. Properly reviewed applicants can save tens of thousands on your budget but require time, tax knowledge, and parent outreach. Yet, your time is stretched thin like a sail in a gale by juggling multiple responsibilities. Let Mission Enrollment be your trusted navigator. We take care of a comprehensive folder review process and free you to focus on the business of enrollment.

PLATFORM TRANSITION PROGRAM

Safeguard Calculations and Budget from Big Waves

No two financial aid formulas are the same despite similar variables. How do you change platforms and prevent any negative impacts on family calculations or budgets? At Mission Enrollment, we’ve mastered every leading platform and its formula. We can assess your portfolio to ensure levers are adequately calibrated to support returning and future families and aligned with your policies and program goals. Let us navigate you through a smooth transition and set the stage for a positive family experience.

POLICY GUIDE PROGRAM

Steady the Helm with a Financial Aid Framework

An official written policy guide serves as the compass for your school’s financial aid program. It ensures consistency and fairness across all applications. In this program, Mission Enrollment serves as your trusted first mate. Get expert guidance to define core policies and protocols, set accurate family expectations, and ensure transparency to foster a supportive and thriving community.

Mission Enrollment has been an invaluable partner in helping us to arrive at fair and equitable tuition assistance awards. As an office of one, having their expertise and support behind my award recommendations has been reassuring to my Head of School and Director of Finance.
