Effective now, Drake students should utilize Starfish to schedule appointments with staff in the Financial Aid Office. Appointment requests received via phone or email will be directed to the Starfish appointment scheduler. (The main Financial Aid Office email and phone line remain available for questions that do not require an appointment.) 

This change will streamline financial aid appointment scheduling and provide students with the ability to request appointments at any time, even during non-business hours. Coming soon, our office will be implementing a check-in kiosk for in-person visitors that will facilitate a meeting with available staff or allow a student to schedule a meeting for another time.
