Full FAFSA Launch by Dec. 1: What Students and Families Need To Know
"Students and families finally have an idea of what to expect from the 2025-26 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), the form that unlocks federal students loans, grants, work-study and scholarships for millions of Americans each year," Nerd Wallet reports.
..."Financial aid experts are optimistic that the phased rollout will prevent the technical glitches and delays that plagued the form’s 2024-25 rendition.
'Hopefully, a lot of the FAFSA completion bugs that applicants found when the 2024-25 FAFSA rolled out late in December last year will already have been caught and resolved before December 1,' says Karen McCarthy, vice president of public policy and federal relations at the National Association of Student Financial Aid Administrators."
