Katie Kocsis became Niagara University’s director of financial aid in September 2013 at age 27. The woman she replaced retired the previous February after almost 36 years at NU.

So when Kocsis steps in to take the reins of the Financial Aid 101 session during today’s Buffalo National College Fairfrom the individual who has presented it for each of the event’s 14 incarnations, she’ll be more than ready.

“At Niagara University, we really pride ourselves on working closely with students and families during every step of the financial aid process, so my seminar at the college fair is really an extension of that experience, and one that I’m very excited for,” said Kocsis, who has worked in NU’s Office of Financial Aid since 2007.

Presented by the National Association for College Admission Counseling, this year’s Buffalo National College Fair will bring thousands of high school juniors to the Buffalo Niagara Convention Center on March 21-22. The 30-minute financial aid workshop that Kocsis will lead is scheduled for 7 p.m. on Wednesday.

Kocsis, a two-time Niagara University graduate, has been an in-demand presenter over the past several months. Click here for more!
