NASFAA Task Force Report: Administrative Capability
National Association of Student Financial Aid Administrators
The Administrative Capability Task Force was convened by the National Association of Student Financial Aid Administrators (NASFAA) to deliver a report containing recommendations that could provide better support for financial aid offices, ensuring they are able to meet administrative capability standards. The task force comprised a geographically diverse group of NASFAA members from all types of postsecondary institutions. Based on research and discussions, the task force developed three recommendations for ways in which NASFAA can be instrumental in the improvement of administrative capability on campuses. To address the issues outlined above, this task force presents three recommendations for NASFAA, which are outlined in more detail within this report: (1) Repackage existing products into an Administrative Capability Toolkit that will provide a one-stop shop for resources to assist an institution in assessing its administrative capability; (2) Collaborate with the American Council on Education (ACE) to educate campus chief executive officers regarding the importance of their understanding of and commitment to ensuring campus compliance with the Higher Education Act and associated regulations; and (3) Further study specific administrative relief or regulatory incentives for institutions that demonstrate administrative capability.
