麻豆传媒高清 Student Financial Services has adopted the following National Association of Student Financial Assistance Administrators (NASFAA) Code of Conduct for Financial Aid Professionals to ensure the highest ethical behavior and professional practices:
1. No action will be taken by financial aid staff that is for their personal benefit or could be perceived to be a conflict of interest.
- Employees within the financial aid office will not award aid to themselves or their immediate family members. Staff will reserve this task to an institutionally designated person, to avoid the appearance of a conflict of interest.
- If a preferred lender list is provided, it will be compiled without prejudice and for the sole benefit of the students attending the institution. The information included about lenders and loan terms will be transparent, complete and accurate. The complete process through which preferred lenders are selected will be fully and publicly disclosed. Borrowers will not be auto-assigned to any particular lender.
- A borrower鈥檚 choice of a lender will not be denied, impeded or unnecessarily delayed by the institution, even if that lender is not included on the institution鈥檚 preferred lender list.
- No amount of cash, gift or benefit in excess of a de minimis amount shall be accepted by a financial aid staff member from any financial aid applicant (or his/her family) or from any entity doing business with or seeking to do business with the institution (including service on advisory committees or boards beyond reimbursement for reasonable expenses directly associated with such service).
2. Information provided by the financial aid office is accurate, unbiased and does not reflect preference arising from actual or potential personal gain.
3. Institutional award notifications and/or other institutionally provided materials shall include the following:
- A breakdown of individual components of the institution's cost of attendance.
- Clear identification of each award, indicating type of aid (i.e. gift aid, grant, scholarship), work or loan.
- Standard terminology and definitions, using of award letter terms.
- Renewal requirements for each award.
4. All required consumer information is displayed in a prominent location on the institutional website(s) and in any printed materials, easily identified and found, and labeled as 鈥consumer information.鈥
5. Financial aid professionals will disclose to their institution any involvement, interest in or potential conflict of interest with any entity with which the institution has a business relationship.
