The Department of Education is preparing to make the process of filing FAFSA easier for users.

The Free Application for Student Aid is known to be difficult to navigate and confusing to those attempting to complete the process.

In 2020, Congress passed the FAFSA Simplification Act, which aims to reduce the number of questions throughout the application and make Pell Grants and other federal aid more accessible.

The ED is getting ready to release a draft of the updated form and make it available for the public to comment on.

The new application is scheduled to roll out for the 2024-25 school year on December 1st.
