NEWS FROM NASFAA

On Tuesday the Department of Education (ED) opened a 60-day comment period on a proposed new information collection by which institutions will be required to report individual students’ Federal Work-Study (FWS) earnings through the Common Origination and Disbursement (COD) system. While previous mention of this new reporting requirement referred only to collecting the student’s calendar year FWS earnings, the documents published this week indicate that several additional FWS-related fields will be required for 2024-25.

A group of higher education policy experts gathered for a webinar on Wednesday to discuss possible solutions to ensure higher education has stable federal and state funding during economic downturns, making them “recession proof.”
