About DRI:
The Don Raley Institute started in 1982 as the “Summer Institute” and was renamed in honor of Don Raley in 1998 who created the event and ran it for many years. Over the years, the Don Raley Institute has been a mainstay of PASFAA’s training repertoire and has been a fun way to onboard many new financial professionals over the years.
The Don Raley Institute is geared towards brands new financial aid professionals in their first year of the profession. The registration fee is $495 and includes two overnights in a personal air-conditioned apartment, breakfast, lunch, and refreshments each day. For attendees who do not need overnight accommodations, the registration fee is $350. Presentation topics include; financial aid basics, the application process, student eligibility, verification, cost of attendance, packaging, direct loans, loan repayment, professional judgment, Pell, SAP, PHEAA programs, and more. Don Raley is also a great place to meet some new friends, build connections outside your school, and commiserate with others who understand the trials and tribulations of financial aid!
