COHEAO seeks to serve as a news resource on issues related to the Federal Student Aid programs and student financial services for its members and the broader community. While we are always looking for better ways to communicate breaking news and developments, COHEAO currently delivers news and information through three main vehicles:
- The Torch: COHEAO’s highly acclaimed newsletter, providing informative and timely updates to the membership concerning important regulatory and legislative issues affecting education. The bi-monthly publication is emailed to COHEAO members and is also available for viewing online.
- Spark Notes: Memos sent to the COHEAO membership. Spark Notes provide updates on breaking developments between editions of The Torch.
- Financial Wellness Newsletters: COHEAO publishes Financial Wellness Newsletters on a regular basis that touch upon trends and hot topics in the industry.
