WELCOME TO ECM FIN AID

For more nearly 40 years, Educational Compliance Management (ECM) has been assisting post-secondary institutions of all sizes by providing Financial Aid Processing, disseminating Compliance information, and conducting Staff Training. ECM’s mission has always been to ensure that post-secondary institutions deliver Title IV funds quickly and efficiently, while remaining fully compliant with Federal financial aid regulations.

While the bottom line is securing your students’ aid packages, there is much more to the process. As a partner in your institution’s growth, we define our value-added differentiators as “Essential ECM,” an approach based on the following foundation:

  1. Absolute dedication to compliance, service and support
  2. Accessibility to senior-level staff, their knowledge and experience
  3. Ongoing training, re-training and consulting
  4. An “all-inclusive” approach with no hidden costs
