NEWS FROM NASFAA

Congress continued to carry out its oversight of the Department of Education’s (ED) handling of the 2024-25 FAFSA on Tuesday, as the House Committee on Education and the Workforce conducted a wide-ranging hearing on President Joe Biden’s fiscal year 2025 budget request. During the hearing Education Secretary Miguel Cardona received pointed questions on the administration’s priorities.

In a year where many financial aid offices feel overworked due to FAFSA simplification, administrative burden, being short-staffed, and more, a new report from the College and University Professional Association for Human Resources (CUPA-HR) and NASFAA found that over half of financial aid professionals are likely to seek other employment opportunities within the next year.
