Bellevue University automates 80% of aid awarding and disburses $104M with Sierra-Cedar

Bellevue University faced challenges with its existing financial aid system, which had limited automation and lacked native integration with other Oracle applications. To modernize its process, the university partnered with vendor Sierra-Cedar to implement Oracle Student Financial Aid (Oracle SFA).

Sierra-Cedar's solution provided a high level of automation specifically designed for non-traditional students. The implementation resulted in over 80% automation in awarding more than $210,000,000 in aid and 99% automation in disbursing over $104,000,000. Sierra-Cedar also developed a robust production support model for long-term system sustainability.
