Financial Aid Assistant (SL2)
This title is in the unclassified service and in the SUNY Professional Services Negotiating Unit.
As a family, the financial aid titles administer the student financial aid program on a campus. Incumbents interpret and advise students on federal and State University financial aid programs, assisting students and parents in determining need and eligibility for various student aid funds.
- Serves on the campus financial aid staff.
- Performs work similar to a Financial Aid Advisor, but under closer supervision because of inexperience and a lack of familiarity with guidelines and administrative requirements, for the allocation of all aid programs.
- Probably does not make independent decisions on aid awards.
Preferred Qualifications:
A Bachelor's degree preferably with a Master's degree in progress and related financial aid experience.
