University of Minnesota, Some Private Colleges Extend Decision Deadlines After FAFSA Delays

"The University of Minnesota and some private colleges announced Thursday that they will give students more time to decide whether they want to attend, after the federal government announced FAFSA delays that mean financial aid offers from colleges nationwide will go out later than usual," The Star Tribune reports.

... "'These continued delays, communicated at the last minute, threaten to harm the very students and families that federal student aid is intended to help,' Justin Draeger, president of the National Association of Student Financial Aid Administrators, said in a statement."
