Who we need
For over 45 years, Fame has been a trusted partner to post-secondary schools. We recognize the challenges that career school administrators face in managing their institutions, from streamlining operations to ensuring regulatory compliance. At Fame, we provide the support and tools needed to navigate these complexities and run academic institutions efficiently. Our student information systems, supporting tools, and Admission CRM Software, including powerful EDlumina, help simplify and streamline these processes.
Reporting to the Sr. Director, Financial Aid Services & Compliance, we are hiring a Financial Aid Consultant to join our remote Consulting Services team. In this role, you will support colleges, universities, and career schools as a trusted advisor on Title IV financial aid compliance. You will review student financial aid packages, provide guidance on regulatory requirements, support verification and Return to Title IV (R2T4) processes, and help institutions strengthen their financial aid practices in line with evolving federal regulations. This is a highly consultative, compliance-focused opportunity for someone who brings deep financial aid knowledge, enjoys interpreting complex regulations, and wants to help clients navigate them with confidence.
This is a remote-first role from anywhere in the United States, with working hours aligned to the Eastern Time zone.
Who you are
You are a financial aid professional with strong Title IV compliance and processing experience, currently working in a college, university, career school, trade school, or financial aid consulting environment. You are ready to bring your expertise into a consultative role where institutions rely on you as the subject matter expert on complex regulatory guidelines across multiple schools and programs. You enjoy compliance-focused work and take pride in accuracy, sound judgment, and helping institutions strengthen their financial aid practices. You are analytical, detail-oriented, and a clear communicator who can translate complex regulations into practical guidance for clients.
What’s in it for you
Purpose. You want to apply your financial aid expertise in a role that has a broad impact. By helping institutions maintain compliant and effective financial aid operations, your work supports schools ensuring funds were delivered accurately and responsibly so students can access education.
Professional exposure. You will work with a wide range of colleges, universities, and career schools, gaining insight into how different institutions manage financial aid operations. In this consultative role, you partner directly with institutional teams to solve complex regulatory and operational challenges while applying your knowledge of Title IV compliance across diverse school environments.
Meaningful expertise. This role allows you to focus deeply on the compliance and regulatory side of financial aid without the constant demands of student-facing service. You will strengthen your expertise in Title IV regulations, participate in institutional reviews, and occasionally partner with schools on more in-depth operational or compliance assessments.
