Our bank currently performs Financial Aid Analysis for several private high schools, which are customers of ours for tuition lending. We have been asked by the church to perform this analysis in association with their local scholarship.
We are contemplating putting the application online, so applicants to the scholarship could submit their financial info to our bank for review. It could be well over 1,000 applications for each scholarship. Some, but not all, of the applicants would be kids that go to the schools were we are providing the tuition financing.
We would not make any loans or use the info provided other than as part of the requested analysis. We would collect a small fee from the applicant for each analysis.
Disclosures contemplated include: privacy notice that providing the info to us means directing us to share the info with the church’s scholarship program; disclosure that the fee pays only for the bank’s analysis, and does NOT imply that a scholarship will be received.
What compliance issues do you foresee?
