TL;DR

The U.S. Education Department has acknowledged a $1.8 billion mistake in the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) that would have resulted in some students receiving less aid than they should. The department has committed to fixing the error in time for the 2024-2025 award year, but details on the fix and its timeline are still unclear. Financial aid offices are concerned about the impact on students and families, as the delay in resolving the mistake is affecting their ability to provide accurate financial aid information.
