We have already combined the Bursar (Student Finance) office with the
Financial Aid office into the Student Financial Services office. We also
had two different divisions in the same office space and it has been a
challenge bringing them together for one purpose.
By the way, a Bursar is defined as a (very simply) the person in charge of
the receipt, disbursement, and reporting of student funds in a college,
school, or university.

We are going to combine the Cashiers, Student Accounts, Financial Aid
Accounting and the Financial Aid offices into a "one stop" service
department. It might be called the "Student Business" office or something
similar.
It will be a challange because we will have two different divisions in the
same office space working together.
