  • WASHINGTON (NEXSTAR) - Education Secretary Miguel Cardona said the Department of Education is working around the clock to make sure the FAFSA process improves, after major delays and a troubled roll out of the new financial aid form.
    “We’ve had delays, we’ve had issues with some of the coding that we had to make changes to,” Cardona said.
    Lawmakers grilled Sec. Cardona about the roll out during a hearing on Tuesday, just one day before May 1, which in normal circumstances is considered college decision day for many high schoolers around the country.

    Why wasting the time of filling it out if most of us won't qualify. If both parents work, they wont qualify, even if both parents make the minimal to support a family.

      How many dependents does your hypothetical family have?
      What is the combined taxable income of the parents/family?
      Is the family in a different financial situation today than it was in tax year 2022?
      The majority of scholarships are not needs-based. In order to qualify for 75%+ of those scholarships, students are required to complete the FAFSA by their state’s Priority Deadline.
      Even children of millionaires should complete a FAFSA application.

    FASFA does have some issues, but they did just update and overhaul the website which some things weren’t necessarily needed. Amazing if your gpa is good since that means free schooling

      Fasfa is needs based has nothing to do with GPA

      @@dmp1962- FAFSA isn’t needs based. Pell Grants are needs based. Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants are needs based. Federal Work Study grants are needs based. There are numerous reasons why affluent students are incentivized to complete the FAFSA.
