Why are financial aid professionals leaving in such large numbers?

Burnout, increased workloads, low pay, and a difficult FAFSA rollout have contributed to a wave of resignations across financial aid offices.

How fast can BPS provide interim staff?

We have a deep bench of experienced professionals who can often be placed within days, depending on your specific needs.

Is this just a temporary fix?

No. BPS focuses on sustainable improvements, combining short-term support with long-term planning, training, and best-practice implementation.

Working at Best Practice Solutions

At Best Practice Solutions, we hire experienced higher education practitioners for enrollment consulting jobs, financial aid consulting careers, and interim enrollment leadership roles. Our team is made up of professionals who have led admissions, financial aid, and enrollment operations inside colleges and universities — and understand the competing priorities, capacity constraints, and real accountability institutions face.

We are a higher education consulting firm built for execution. Our work connects strategy, financial aid, systems, and operations — and we stay through implementation. If you’re exploring higher ed enrollment jobs or Slate consulting careers and want to work alongside institutions as embedded partners, not outside advisors, we’d welcome the conversation.
