TASFAA Times Newsletter Survey Results
Submitted by Caroline Hernandez, Senior Account Executive, TG

In July 2006 a survey was emailed to TASFAA membership requesting feedback as to what information you wanted to see in the TASFAA Times newsletter.

Follows is a summary of the survey results:

  • We had 100 visits to the survey site, with only 63 complete surveys.
  • 38% of those that responded have been in the financial aid industry 11-20 years.
  • 81% of the responders represented a school.
  • Approximately 92% of them did read the newsletter and did find the content useful.
  • On a scale 1-5, with five being the highest, articles of interest that scored high included:
    • Regulatory information
    • Financial aid issues
    • TASFAA activities.
  • The next highest rating on articles of interest included:
    • TASFAA committee
    • Professional judgment
    • Professional development.
  • You told us that the newsletter is of importance to you and you would like to see it published quarterly.

To those who completed our online survey, thank you very much. We greatly appreciate your feedback.

However, we know TASFAA consists of more than 63 members and we want to hear from those who did not complete our survey. If you are interested in reading about a particular subject article or, better yet, you want to submit an article, please email our newsletter chair, Mariko Gomez, at Gomez@txstate.edu. Remember, the TASFAA Times newsletter is “for” and “about” the members of TASFAA.

Wishing everyone a safe and happy holiday season!
