Description

Efficiently determine financial aid awards and enhance the application process using Blackbaud’s Smart Aid software tailored for K-12 private schools and smaller colleges. Understanding an applicant's genuine financial situation—or lacking that knowledge—can greatly influence the fairness of financial aid distribution. Tailor financial aid applications to include questions that matter most to your institution, and utilize our unique hobbies, interests, and lifestyle (HIL) calculations for deeper insights into each applicant's financial context. This approach equips you with pertinent information for essential financial aid decisions while also creating a more user-friendly experience for applicants. Additionally, offer mobile-friendly options for applicants to easily check their application status. Collaborate with implementation experts to adjust calculation settings, ensuring they align with your specific policies and enrollment criteria. Ultimately, this empowers your institution to develop a fair financial aid formula that reflects your unique needs and values. By leveraging such comprehensive tools, you can foster transparency and trust throughout the application process.
