New Title IV Schools

Since our founding in 2007, FA Experts® has helped dozens of schools navigate the transition to Title IV financial aid participation. In our experience, schools applying for Title IV participation are almost never fully aware of the breadth and depth of federal scrutiny and regulation they are signing up for.

As your institution progresses toward participation in federal financial aid, your team will discover a seemingly endless number of regulatory requirements – from admissions, registrar, business office, and placement rules and disclosures – to requirements for campus security, non-discrimination, violence against women, voter registration, information privacy, vaccinations, drugs, alcohol – the list goes on and on…

These requirements translate into the need for dozens of written policies, each governed by a federal framework that often differs from your State or accreditor standards.

Further, schools participating in Title IV must disclose a plethora of information to prospective students, continuing students, parents, and sometimes the general public. The types of disclosures include:

  • the publication and annual distribution of certain school policies,
  • performance metrics/data disclosures across multiple departments/functions,
  • instructions for students and parents on applying for financial aid, and
  • general information about the school, its programs, and the financial aid programs.

FA Experts® is uniquely positioned to assist your school with the transition to Title IV. From providing guidance in policy creation and organizational structure, to staff training and website development, FA Experts will become a trusted partner and member of your team.
