About the Episode

Tune into an exciting conversation about the future of financial aid on this week's episode, featuring ideas and innovative insight from Amy Glynn, VP of Student Financial Success at CampusLogic.

Zach and Amy cover a lot of ground in this conversation - from the current student debt crisis to the communication strategies and tactics enrollment teams use to present aid awards, to how to think about the role financial aid counselors play in the admissions process and more!

Amy shares thoughts on how schools should shift from a model that prioritizes student financial success (and not just academic success) and offers a unique opinion on income share agreements and the role they play in higher ed.

This episode is brought to you by our friends at Squiz - a Student Experience Platform that offers a full suite of solutions developed exclusively for higher education.
