"The head of the University System of Georgia blasted federal education officials for a troubled new financial aid process, a 'deployment debacle' he said has created a massive workload for colleges and left students worried about how to pay for school," The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

..."The National Association of Student Financial Aid Administrators has said that means colleges must undergo 'a slow and laborious' process to make sure students get their financial aid in time for the 2024-2025 school year. The association noted that the delays in paying out aid “will disproportionately affect the most vulnerable students who need these funds to pay their bills and begin classes.”
