Customize financial aid applications to ask questions important to your institution and gain the best insight into each applicant’s finances through our proprietary hobbies, interests, and lifestyle (HIL) calculations. All of which give you relevant knowledge for critical financial aid award decisions and help provide a streamlined experience for applicants. Provide convenient, mobile friendly access to checking an application status. Configure the calculation settings with the guidance of implementation experts. Design an equitable formula based on your policies and enrollment parameters.
