A significant glitch in the FAFSA application process has caused widespread concern among students and families, prompting a flurry of activity from educational institutions and government officials. Texas A&M Corpus Christi is hosting three community events starting Wednesday evening to assist with the college financial aid process, while college counselors work to help families affected by the glitch. The Education Department faces accusations of 'malicious negligence' over the issue. In response, the FAFSA priority deadline has been extended at some institutions, including @accdistrict, and a bill to extend the California FAFSA deadline by a month is headed to Governor Gavin Newsom's desk.
