Draft FAFSA Released

The first version of what the new Free Application for Federal Student Aid will look like is here, and it’s not the short application many have hoped for. It has  46 questions and runs 21 pages, although many students won’t have to answer all the questions. Still, a combination of technology and legislative changes should lead to a simpler process to fill out the application, which is essential for students to access need-based federal and state financial aid.
