Professional Judgment (PJ) is getting a lot of public attention these days -- so much so that the Department of Education has issued two "Dear Colleague" letters giving schools more specific instructions on how and when to use PJ. The effects of the economic recession have driven students and families to your doorstep. How are you going to handle them in a timely and efficient manner, without impacting enrollment, giving the farm away, or running afoul of federal regulations?
ProEducation Solutions offers its team of experienced former and retired financial aid professionals to assist all educational institutions with the PJ process. Like our other services, the Verification Assistant and the SAP Assistant, the PJ Assistant is delivered through a secure, web-based service designed to handle the multitude of documents involved in both verification and professional judgment. Let our team of financial aid experts be a virtual extension of your office without the expense and time of hiring and training new staff.
We know that college and university budgets are very tight these days. By using our services you can get that extra set of hands needed to get the job done, while at the same time reducing your costs. As one Financial Aid Director recently remarked, “I couldn’t do this any cheaper myself.” Give us a call to check out our prices. You might be very surprised at how affordable we are.
All of ProEd’s Assistant services provide a complete audit trail, including who reviewed the documents, the date of review, and the recommended action. In addition, there is a complete archival system so that college staff can retrieve documents on-line for each day, week, month or year. Documents can also be retrieved from previous years.

- Complete on-line archival of verification forms and processes
- Reduces your workload
