Across all tracks:

• Maintain thorough documentation of all work performed on student accounts including workflows, tasks, activities, and document uploads in the system of record.
• Assign additional documents to student accounts as needed.
• Assist with other financial aid functions as needed and attend training, workshops, and seminars to stay current on federal aid regulations.
