Federal Student Aid (FSA) on Wednesday announced that the 2024-25 FAFSA will go live by December 31, 2023, meeting the statutory requirement that the form must be available by January 1. Along with the release date, FSA announced institutions will begin receiving Institutional Student Information Records (ISIRs) by the end of January 2024.

The Senate on Wednesday rejected a Congressional Review Act (CRA) resolution to overturn the Biden administration’s new income-driven repayment plan, the Saving on a Valuable Education (SAVE) plan.

While adapting to change has always been an important skill for financial aid administrators, transformational changes such as FAFSA simplification and disruptions in the workforce present greater challenges than ever before. To help meet the challenge, Jackie Copeland, Chrissy Gass, Vanessa Martineau, and Art Young join NASFAA’s Susan Shogren on December 6, at 2 p.m. ET, to explore change management and interpersonal communication as foundational professional skills. Reserve your seat today!
