In an effort to provide relief to millions of students and those colleges most impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, the federal government recently made sweeping changes and leniency to the federal financial aid verification process in the middle of the 2021-22 aid year.

Schools must now act quickly to operationalize their systems and workflows for this temporary policy, manage communications and expectations with parents, students, and staff, and continue to navigate ongoing and unforeseen implications.

In this episode, Amy, Chris, and Carlo share their perspectives on this update from a practitioner, technological, and governmental policy standpoint. They also share their thoughts on what the transition back to full verification could look like once this policy has been lifted.
