NEWS FROM NASFAA

Meet Shawn Domingo, FAAC®, director of financial aid and scholarships at San Joaquin Delta College in California. Shawn has two decades of experience in financial aid. He got his start at Solano Community College as a financial aid assistant. Since then, Shawn has worked at the aid offices of Heald College, Chaminade University of Honolulu, Hawaii Community College, Cogswell Polytechnical College, Ohlone College, and more.

The U.S. Supreme Court (SCOTUS) on Wednesday rejected the Biden administration's effort to reinstate provisions of the Saving on a Valuable Education (SAVE) repayment plan while legal challenges to the program play out. According to the brief ruling SCOTUS “expects that the Court of Appeals will render its decision with appropriate dispatch.”

Jackie currently serves as the compliance generalist and webinar producer for NASFAA on the Training and Regulatory Assistance team. She has served in the financial aid community since 2005 and has made it a priority to work with organizations that value the importance of promoting student access and success in higher education.
