"Computer glitches in the U.S. Department of Education's recently overhauled financial aid system have left many students unable to commit to a school," CBS News reports.

... "Typically, the Department of Education releases the forms on Oct. 1 and sends the students' data to colleges within one to three days of a submission. This year, the application forms came out three months late. It's estimated that more than 25% of colleges have still not sent aid packages, according to a report last week from the National Association of Student Financial Aid Administrators."
