Sylvia Ahanonu

Accountant, Sponsored Programs

An MIS graduate of the University of Arizona, Sylvia returned as an employee in 2013, following over 20 years of satisfying business management in the private sector. Currently, she is the Sponsored Programs Accountant, managing the scholarships of students sponsored by their governments and private entities. Working closely with several UA departments, sponsors, and students, Sylvia tracks each sponsored account AZI manages from the point of student admission to the student’s separation from the University, ensuring Student Bursar and Sponsor Corporate accounts are reconciled to avoid enrollment disruptions and any collateral immigration consequences. Account management includes set-up, ongoing updates, customized billing, collecting receivables, meeting with students, and responding to account inquiries. Additionally, she prepares detailed financial reports in support of institutional budgeting and decision-making, acting as a consultant as the need arises.

As a former international student, Sylvia also takes great joy in liaising as the UA Board Member, as we partner with Tucson’s International Friends, Inc.
