HS Quiz Bowl Score Wed Feb 7
Schools have received information that the FAFSA's you have been filing, will now not get to the colleges until mid-March. (There was an issue at the federal level with calculations and that is causing the delay as they fix it).
This will likely push back when the colleges are able to send you the financial aid packages. Financial aid folks and colleges are not at fault with this. They have no control in the matter and they are just waiting patiently for the problems to be fixed. In the mean time, just know this is a nationwide issue at the moment and please be patient with your colleges. They are doing the best they can.
If you have not yet completed your FAFSA and intend to go to college in the fall, please do not wait and complete it ASAP. Thanks!
