Fortunately, ED MAP’s software suite, OpenVue™, is no one-trick pony: OpenVue features a financial aid module that makes it easy for students to shop for their materials and use their available financial aid as payment – then receive their packages without delay. Potential roadblock removed.
The module’s flexibility accommodates your preferred method of providing the information and the ease of viewing data in OpenVue makes it painless to monitor how much of the money has been spent. Knowing how much is available gives you a timely option to re-allocate financial aid if it is available for other students’ use. But seeing unspent funds could also be an early warning that a student may be having second thoughts about taking a course and gives your staff time to contact the student proactively.
OpenVue’s financial aid module ensures the accounting staff will be happy, too. No longer will they need to wait for the arrival of large piles of paper invoices that clutter their desks. Instead, they can download invoices onto their desktop when they want them. They’ll receive the data they need, in a form that’s easy for them to use, on the billing schedule of their choice.
Financial aid is a powerful student recruitment and retention tool; let OpenVue help you make the most of it.
