  2. Agenda • Who we are • What we did • Why we did it • Process Flow • Results • Questions

  3. Who we are

  4. What we did

  5. What we did • Redesign FA Document Process • Re-design student document submission process to make it more intuitive. • Create paperless verification worksheet and c-code document submission process, driven by student. • Better for student • Better for College staff • Better for cycle times, errors, and student accountability • Student can submit documents online • Upload • Camera phone • Fax barcode

  6. What we did • Shared Service Center for File Review • Federal Title IV is a standardized process • Ensure consistency of processing across campus = Ensure compliance • Ensure consistent student experience • Leverage economies of scale • Reduce need for hiring, staffing, retaining and training at each College • Leverage centralized people, process and technology • Colleges retain control of special cases, escalations, etc. • Outsourced process to Global FAS

  7. Why we did it

  8. Why we did it DCCCD Collin College Application Growth 18,047 total FA applications received for 2009-10 85% increase over 2007-08 Pell Awards $17 million in Federal Pell awards paid for 2009-10 127% increase over 2008-09 Staff Staffing resources are not growing at a fast enough rate to manage application growth • Application Growth • 58,503 total FA applications received for 2009-10 • 92% increase over 2007-08 • Pell Awards • $69 million in Federal Pell awards paid for 2009-10 • 84% increase over 2008-09 • Staff • Staffing resources are not growing at a fast enough rate to manage application growth

  9. Why we did it • Regulatory Changes/Economic Factors • Percentage of applications selected for verification is increasing faster than total volume increase (approximately 55%, up from about 45% average for several years) • Increasing complexity of Pell regulations has decreased the ability to program automation • Increasing diversity between state and federal general eligibility criteria • Student Experience • 6-8 week file review backlog becoming norm - creating problems for tuition loss, student service and negative impact to College staff • Not intuitive process for students • File review paperwork is dropped off, sits in piles and has to be imaged, then manipulated and re-printed in another system • eConnect/MIL letter disconnect with File Review • MIL letters only every 30 days
