  2. The ease of understanding the information they provided to you.

  1. Their courtesy

  2. Willingness to help

  3. Having the knowledge required to resolve your type of issue or concern

  4. Ability to clearly and fully answer your questions

  5. Time they took to resolve your issue or concern

  6. Making clear to you the next steps you or your loan servicer needed to take (if necessary)


  1. Given that the Ombudsman Group is designed to be a neutral party, would you say that the representative(s) approached the resolution of your issue or concern without taking sides?

    2. No

    3. Not applicable

ACSI Benchmark Questions

Please think about your experiences dealing with the Ombudsman Group, including the information they provided, timeliness of resolution, courtesy, and fairness of resolution.


  1. Using a 10-point scale on which “1” means “very dissatisfied” and “10” means “very satisfied,” how satisfied are you with how the Ombudsman Group helped you handle your financial aid issue or dispute?



  1. Using a 10-point scale on which “1” means “falls short of your expectations” and “10” means “exceeds your expectations,” to what extent have your experiences with and service from the Ombudsman Group met your expectations?


  1. Imagine what you think would be the ideal process and experience for working with an independent group to help resolve your financial aid issue or dispute.
