Student Services Transformation

Financial Aid Updates

August 2009

Dear Financial Aid Module Listserv Members:

The Financial Aid Module of the Student System Transformation Project is progressing well. We are still in the configuration stage—below is a brief update of our progress to date.

Recently, we had the opportunity to participate in a training and development event with the Financial Aid staff. During this half-day learning opportunity, we provided a brief overview of the financial aid functionality. Using a “mock” student, we activated the financial aid year, built a financial aid term, created a student’s financial aid budget and awarded a student a financial aid package.

Some additional items we have been working on include coordinating PeopleSoft access for our Subject Matter Experts and Core Team members, identifying and defining security roles and descriptions, developing business cases, reviewing our tasks in accordance with the project timeline, and making strides in reducing the action log items from our fit/gap sessions.

We will continue to work on configuring the financial aid module as we move into the fall season.
