Report on Graduate/Professional Financial Aid Award Letter Consumer Testing

The Consumer Information & Law Student Indebtedness Task Force was convened after receiving a grant from Access Group. The task force was charged with determining what consumer information would be most helpful to current and prospective law students. Through consumer testing conducted by Coffey Consulting, LLC, the task force has made recommendations on how financial aid award letters and the Department of Education's Shopping Sheet can be modified to help students make better-informed borrowing and enrollment decisions. Regardless of what graduate discipline you serve, this session will help you tailor award letters to better meet the needs of graduate students.
