“I love it. I’m responsible for getting refunds out. I can do all of this in one day now whereas before it used to take almost a full week. I don’t have to worry about that anymore. I send the file and it’s done. It’s great!”

Georgia Perimeter College

“Atlanta Tech is the first of many schools within Georgia’s Department of Technical Adult Education System toimplement Higher One’s services and we think the successes we see will set the bar for how Georgia DTAE institutionshandle student financial services. Higher One has allowed us to streamline the entire disbursement process and gives students the added benefit of banking services through their OneAccount.”

Teresa Brown

“We are excited about being the first school in Massachusetts to choose Higher One. Not only does Higher One provide a solution to the issues we faced with our previous refund process, but it also delivers students their money faster and with more options.”

“We like that the students can have their awards transferred into their OneAccounts, as it will enable our students to gain experience using online banking and permit them to become more familiar with a trend that is becoming more important in the 21st Century.”

“We at DBCC see Higher One’s student refund management service as a win-win. First, our students are better served, receiving a more timely disbursement of financial aid proceeds and tuition refunds. Secondly, our Accounts/Payable, Cash Management, and Bursar’s staff will process nearly 18,000 fewer checks per year.”

“This was a wonderful opportunity to provide our students with enhanced services. Higher One’s OneDisburse Refund Management gives our students a choice between three different methods of receiving their refund. We look forward to working with Higher One to make our students’ lives easier.”

“I think the biggest concern was getting the manual in the mail and the uncertainty that came with it, but it really isn’t that complicated. It was a very methodical approach; very well laid out, very well thought out and very well implemented. It was right on time and there was good communication. The process was fantastic. I can’t say anything bad about it whatsoever.”
