The Federal Application For Student Aid (FAFSA) has been released annually by the United States Department of Education since 1992. For the past four years, reporter Courtney Boyd writes, I have watched the calendar, waiting for October to hit so that I could apply and get my Federal Pell Grant. ⁠ ⁠ When I logged into my account, I was surprised to see that the Department of Education had announced they were revamping the application, with plans to make the application process shorter, smoother and provide more aid to more people. ⁠ ⁠.⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ ⁠ #CMU #CMLife #column #opinion #fafsa #federalapplicationforstudentaid #studentlife #oncampus #collegecost #tuition #studentmedia #studentrunmedia #studentjournalism #opinionwriting #CentralMichiganUniversity #CentralMichiganLife #MidMichigan #MountPleasantMichigan #federalgovernment
