Education Department Details FAFSA Strategy for the Year Ahead. But, There Is Still ‘Potential for Chaos,’ Expert Says
"The U.S. Department of Education announced additional details about the rollout of the new Free Application for Federal Student Aid for the upcoming year, which may address some of the issues that plagued last year’s college aid application cycle,," CNBC reports.
..."The detailed framework on the 2025-26 student aid application follows the department’s initial announcement of a “phased rollout.”
'While we wish we could have an earlier FAFSA open date, we support end-to-end testing to ensure the product released on December 1 works for students, families, and schools,' said Beth Maglione, interim president and CEO of the National Association of Student Financial Aid Administrators."
