Four things to like about the new FAFSA |
||||||||||||||||
We don't live in a perfect world and FAFSA Simplification may be proof of that. In an ideal world, we would snap our fingers and FAFSA Simplification would be implemented. Everyone would understand the changes and happiness would abound. I may be getting carried away here, but with the name “FAFSA Simplification,” it feels like this was supposed to be easy. While we are all facing some challenges, there are still some things to like (maybe even love) about the new FAFSA. True, some of the “good” changes impact students and families more than professionals. However, these good changes will ultimately impact all of us if it means more students are likely to pursue postsecondary education.
This list doesn't negate the challenges that professionals will face when FAFSA Simplification is implemented. No doubt, making the complex into something simple for students and parents to understand is a difficult task. But, somehow in this imperfect world, you make it all look easy. – By Catherine Mueller | ||||||||||||||||
