CAASLAR

Colorado Association of Administrators of Student Loans and Accounts Receivable.

Our Mission

To provide professionals involved in the administration and collection of student loans and tuition receivables the opportunity to get together for the exchange of ideas and information.



Our History

In December 1988, the Western Regional Loan Officer’s Conference was held in Estes Park, Colorado at the Stanley Hotel. This momentous event opened the door for 45 school and vendor participants to develop CAASLAR in 1992.
