Financial Aid Officers:
What They Do To You—And For You

11th Edition
By Donald Moore

The Financial Aid Officer (FAO) decides who gets aid, how much, and of what type.

That makes the FAO one of the most important people on campus. But many students and parents view a visit to the FAO like a call from an IRS auditor. It doesn't have to be that way. Don Moore, an experienced aid officer, takes families through the entire process, from filing an application to receiving an aid award. And he does so in plain English, not "college cataloguese." You’ll learn

  • What’s the best way to bring something to the FAO’s attention--a phone call, a letter, or a face-to-face meeting?
  • Can I negotiate my aid package?
  • Under what conditions will the FAO improve my award?
