About the program…
Financing a college education is of extreme importance to many of your clients. And it’s a very complicated and time-consuming process that in many cases starts with completing required Federal financial aid forms. Please join us for a discussion about the FAFSA form, scholarship opportunities, and how to understand award letters.
Robert Durham is director of financial aid and scholarship services at College Now Greater Cleveland. He joined the organization in September 2008 with nearly four years of experience as a financial aid officer and counselor, first at Brown Mackie College in Cincinnati and later at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio. In both positions, he assisted students in the completion of financial applications and counseled students and their parents on developing strategies for financing postsecondary programs. He holds a Bachelor of Arts in sociology from Wright State University and a Master of Arts in organizational leadership from Gonzaga University. At College Now, Bob oversees a scholarship program that awards over $2 million annually to approximately 1,500 students. In addition, Bob is responsible for College Now’s Resource Center and mentoring program.
