Stamatis Marinos

Senior Admissions and Financial Aid Coordinator, Heinz College

I started my career with CMU in 2012.

I serve as the primary point of contact for the Heinz Financial Aid office and oversee its off-campus work study program (FCSWS). In addition, I assist in application processing and conduct credential verifications for our incoming students. I also give (and train others on) campus tours for prospective students.

During my term, I would like to see Staff Council advocate for a transition to cost of living (vs "merit") increases and would also like to see a continued expansion of its role in building community amongst staff at both the campus and department level.

If I had a superpower, it would be to be able to understand and speak any language, including non-human languages. It's always seemed like a nice way of connecting with people and also finding out what the butterflies might be up to.
