"Recent surveys show a sharp increase in college administrators complaining about the Federal Student Aid process as the Trump administration implements mass layoffs, a higher education trade group reported Wednesday," The Washington Times reports.

..."The National Association of Student Financial Aid Administrators found that the share of institutions accusing the Education Department’s financial aid arm of unresponsiveness and processing delays jumped from 59% in May to 72% in July. 

Over the same period, the portion of colleges and universities reporting student confusion about financial aid nearly doubled, from 32% to 51%."
