Other than financial aid are we allowed to talk to students about grants (free money)?

Organization is the most important part, without it nothing can be accomplished

The trainings seem to assist with relaying and ensuring that we are relaying accurate up to date and compliant information and this can always be appreciated.

Is an admissions employee responsible for all of the Fin Aid info? or can that be left for the FA office?

Are schools required to be accredited to function ?

High School Recruiter

Successful recruiters will book out there calenders two months in advance. Strong agents do a great deal of research in areas they be targeting to develop the best possible relationship to grow the student body of institutions they represent.

Are agents allowed to speak with students about financial aid?

Do Students have the right to have lawsuits against Institutions for any reason?

Some minors live on their own, as a School what do we do in that situation?

What are the consequences to Schools who fail to Comply to the FERPA rules?

What are the consequences to Schools when they fail to comply with the FERPA rules?

I realize that it's always up to the receiving school, but is it just randomly up to their discretion? Or it there a process/regulating body? For instance, if Math Class A from University B is a transferable credit for one student, is it a transferable credit for all students? Or is it a case-by-case basis?

Is 'other counseling' regulated? Specifically, if other counseling was to be offered, but through community professionals (like it mentions in the training); how would that be regulated, approved, etc.

I think this is a huge.. not issue, but more.. debate. In all of the training material, we're told that we should know all of the FA information, all the different kinds, rules, regulations, qualifications, etc. The training material said we should know that by the end of this training - however, we do not necessarily know that. Furthermore, it also mentions that it's up to the institutions discretion as far as what you can and cannot talk about, FA-wise. I understand this. I am not a FA representative, I represent Admissions - but then why are we being told we should know all this information? And then why aren't we being taught it? If we don't need to know, that is the reasoning for not being taught. But through this module, it said we should know all this information. But, that's not really the case, it seems - it seems that it's up to our institution if we should know this, AND if we should be able to share/discuss this. Sam
