Education Secretary Miguel Cardona has acknowledged the challenges posed by this year's FAFSA process, which has been marred by technical issues and delays. Administrators report that the FAFSA debacle is significantly affecting college campuses, with many high-achieving students from limited-resource backgrounds particularly impacted. The FAFSA redesign has led to a chaotic application process, forcing prospective college students to navigate their financial aid options without complete information.
