Phase 1: Account Ingestion & Institutional Data Integrity
-
Student account records are securely ingested from your institution’s Student Information System (SIS) or Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) platform.
-
Every account undergoes a rigorous pre-collection review focused on Title IV status, financial aid disbursement verification, and a comprehensive statute-of-limitations review relevant to institutional debt.
-
Accounts identified as non-collectible (e.g., confirmed death, time-barred claims, verified institutional error) are immediately quarantined and isolated to ensure maximum efficiency on viable debt.
-
Formal regulatory notifications are generated and dispatched to the student, clearly establishing the financial claim’s integrity as required by the FDCPA.
Phase 2: Student Communication and Alumni Goodwill Preservation
-
Personalized contact protocols activate within 24 hours, providing the student or former student with a clear breakdown of the outstanding tuition or fee balances and available pathways for equitable resolution.
-
Our multi-vector engagement matrix utilizes secure portals, targeted SMS, verified email, and postal notifications, with contact timing strictly adhering to consumer protection regulations and institutional preference.
-
Specialized, student-centric scripting is deployed by our agents to ensure respectful and dignified conversations, fully aligning with FDCPA guidelines while prioritizing the preservation of alumni goodwill and future enrollment potential.
Phase 3: Resolution Architecture and Capital Capture
-
We deploy a flexible financial resolution framework offering options such as zero-interest plans, mutually agreeable settlements, and multiple payment acceptance methods (e.g., student accounts, online ACH).
-
Secure treasury conduits utilize compliant gateways, enabling immediate, encrypted synchronization of all recovered funds back to your SIS/ERP for real-time ledger accuracy and streamlined reconciliation.
-
Comprehensive remittance statements are provided, furnishing students with full documentation of all payment allocations and remaining fee obligations to foster complete transparency and audit readiness.
Phase 4: Regulatory Fidelity and Institutional Compliance
-
All sensitive student data is managed within a secure, encrypted environment utilizing strict access controls, thereby ensuring unwavering adherence to FERPA and consumer data privacy laws.
-
Our recovery specialists are mandated to complete continuous, rigorous compliance certification covering all federal (FDCPA, CFPB, Title IV) and local requirements for ethical student debt collection.
-
Every student interaction and financial transaction is meticulously time-stamped and recorded, fabricating a comprehensive, legally robust audit trail that underpins all recovery actions.
Phase 5: Enrollment Path Focus and Outcome Prioritization
-
Institutional integrity and clear financial transparency are the cornerstone of all dialogue, focusing on detailed balance explanations and identifying potential payment deferment or financial aid appeal options.
-
Dedicated student self-service portals grant secure access to review balances, formally submit disputes, or arrange structured repayment plans without needing intervention from the registrar’s office.
-
The final outcome is the maximization of financial recovery achieved through strategic, ethical resolution, solidifying MSB’s role in safeguarding your institution’s reputation and enrollment stability.
