Nicolet College Financial Aid Manager Receives Statewide Honor

Category

The WASFAA New Professional Award acknowledges an individual who made an outstanding contribution to the financial aid profession, particularly WASFAA. Lehmann's outstanding contributions and commitment to her profession were acknowledged by her peers from across the state, at last week’s spring conference in Appleton.  

This award recognizes Lehmann’s professional achievements in her first year as financial aid manager, including her work on the WASFAA Advocacy and Legislative Committee, which was recognized as the 2024 Committee of the Year. Lehmann’s work on this committee helped in passing Act 80 Financial Aid Modernization, which Governor Evers signed into law last December. This law amends Wisconsin Grant programs to be more student-focused and friendly.

"I am deeply honored to receive the 2024 New Professional Award from WASFAA," said Lehmann. "This recognition is a testament to the collaborative efforts of our team at Nicolet College and our shared commitment to serving students effectively. I am grateful for the opportunity to contribute to the advancement of student financial aid services and look forward to continuing to make a positive impact in the years ahead."

Lehmann's leadership gives students access to financial resources to help Nicolet College students be successful.

"We are thrilled to see Lehmann receive this well-deserved honor from WASFAA," said Patrick Burns, Nicolet College director of strategic enrollment. "Lehmann demonstrates her passion for helping students navigate the complexities of financial aid in her work every day.”
