To Hire Two Financial Aid Counselor/Coach Positions. The Positions Would Assist In Coaching New Students Through The Financial Aid Process. We Have About 50% First-Generation Students Admitted To CWU. Due To Changes In Federal Regulations, We've Seen A Larger Workload (Doubled) In Verifications And Document Processing. This Creates Larger Wait Times Being Able To Meet With A Counselor And In Processing Which Impacts The Ability For Students To Attend CWU. The coach position would be outreaching and communicating to students their progress and help facilitate from start to finish.
This proposal was submitted past the deadline of January 26. The committee recognized the need for additional support for students seeking financial assistance and supported funding half of this requests as a retention initiative.
