FAN, no we don’t mean the object that you use to keep yourself cool or used in machinery we are talking about the Financial Aid Network (FAN). Powered by two worldclass women, this company provides essential state of the art college preparation, financial literacy student loan debt management services to individuals and businesses.
So many have said ‘I can’t go to college because I can’t afford it’ this limiting belief has unfortunately been a result of both ‘nature and nurture’ influences such as values and ideas from society and culture. Michelle Obama speaks about ‘Context’ and how it is important to consider context – personally, environmentally, historically, economically, politically etc when it comes to any given individual and situation. This contributes to limiting beliefs people have today.
FAN makes dreams become reality by enabling people
In this day and age, everyone should have the choice, regardless of their background or current situation. FAN are pioneers and leaders in the field of higher education, they are making dreams become reality by enabling people.
They do this through the different programs and services that they provide such as financial aid programs, college preparation, scholarship and placement research, financial literacy and student default prevention services. They also provide a contact solutions call centre.
Many of you would have heard the famous Chinese proverb, ‘Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day, Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime’.
