“FAS knows what you need to know about financial aid. They train their consultants well and have a backup staff of highly trained experts to make them successful. I would encourage anyone who has a vacancy or pending vacancy to think about FAS. They will fill the gap as you look for your next person.”

– Mr. Jim Roberts Vice President and Treasurer | Campbell University

“The FAS consultant who served as our interim financial aid director was extremely competent. She knew financial aid forward and backward, administered the program well, kept our awards in line and kept us operating within the established guidelines.”

– Dr. Ronald White Vice President for Enrollment Management | Columbia College
