Heidi Sisson – Manager, Business Development Cognition Financial, on behalf of SunTrust Bank

I am so pleased to work with all of the amazing people who make up PASFAA! Like many of you, I started my financial aid journey as a work study student and after graduation began working full-time in the Office of Financial Aid in 1992. I enjoyed a number of different roles and spent many happy years working with students. In 2004, I was offered a position with Citibank and started my new adventure in student lending. In 2010, I joined First Marblehead - which is now Cognition Financial - supporting the SunTrust Bank private loan programs. SunTrust offers the Custom Choice and Union Federal Private Loan programs as well as an In-School Refinance Option. In addition to PA, I work with Colleges and Universities in MI, OH, WV, TN, MN, and KY. Please don’t hesitate to contact me at hsisson@cogfin.com or 734.476.9220.
