Hello, my name is Daina Anderson Sharples. I am the owner of DAS Financial Aid Consulting Services, LLC, and the creator of the college financial aid literacy program - Financial Aid Compliance Solutions. The program was created to assist college-bound students and financial aid professionals in understanding how the United States Department of Education’s Higher system works. It is clear with the $1.76 trillion in student loan aid debt, there is a lack of understanding. I aim to provide the knowledge to help students pay for their college education without going into unnecessary debt to the United States Government.
