fafsa calendar information

Beginning on Oct. 1, 2016, students will be able to fill out the FAFSA for the 2017–18 school year. (In the past, they had to wait until January 1). In addition, applicants will no longer need to estimate income and tax information and will be able to retrieve their data directly from the IRS, right from the first day the FAFSA is available. Students also will have information about their Expected Family Contributions earlier, helping them as they’re going through the college application and selection process.

Digital Diplomas Make Print Diplomas Easier

May 25, 2021

Free Webinar | 1:00-2:00 pm ET

You read the webinar title correctly. It sounds counterintuitive, but it’s true. Digital diplomas actually make print diplomas easier. In this session, we’ll hear some Registrar experiences of how digital diplomas are simplifying the issuing of print diplomas and saving the Registrar’s office time. We will also look at the learner experience at these institutions and see how digital diplomas are being used to increase a learner’s success post-graduation and, at the same time, help create brand awareness for the institution.
