Centennial, Colorado, United States
What it is
ProSAM Solution Suite is a financial aid management system for post-secondary educational institutions. It supports processing for individual cases as well as larger-volume operations. Its packaging engine handles term, annual and aggregate limits, automated repackaging, BBAY Federal Loan awarding and Return to Title IV funds. Built-in exchange support covers ISIR, Electronic Corrections, COD Common Record and Reports, NSLDS layouts and CSS Profile. Integration Services supports near-real-time student data loading and real-time posting of authorized disbursements to student accounting systems that support XML exchange; the suite also integrates with student information and student accounts receivable systems. Administrators can define configurations, business rules and group security settings, with enterprise single sign-on, Microsoft Active Directory and LDAP support. ProSAM records changes with before-and-after snapshots and searchable logs, and can generate branded XML letters and send messages by email or text. Sigma describes the product as platform-independent across hosting environments, operating systems and database management software, without naming specific systems. Pricing is by quote.
