Atlanta, GA – Financial Aid Services (FAS), the leading provider of compliance, staffing, and outsourced services to financial aid and business service offices at colleges and universities, announced the appointment of Robert Heil as Chief Executive Officer. FAS founder and current CEO, David Gray, will serve as strategic advisor and remain on the FAS Board of Directors.
