PNPI's Federal Student Aid Boot Camp

PNPI’s FSA Boot Camp is designed for participants interested in advancing their knowledge of federal student aid. Boot camp participants are generally nonprofit, think tank or national association staff, or public policy students interested in, a career in federal higher education policy. Attendees will be provided with an opportunity to engage with their peers and current policy professionals while participating in the boot camp and leave with a grounding in the topic.

The objectives for the boot camp are to:

• Provide participants with an overview of the Federal Pell Grant Program, including how Pell Grants are structured and calculated;
• Review the types of federal student loans, the eligibility requirements for each type of loan, and the demographics of student loan borrowers;
• Provide an overview of student debt, including information on how much students are borrowing, which students are borrowing, and types of institutions borrowers are attending;
• Introduce participants to how a borrower’s debt and default patterns intersect with socioeconomic status, race, type of institution attended, and amount borrowed; and
• Increase participants’ understanding of the federal student aid repayment programs.
