The delayed FAFSA form means that college advisors cannot start helping students until December or even after Winter break. Advisors are urging families to begin working on the FAFSA ID now to be as prepared as possible when the new forms are released.

The FAFSA Simplification Act will likely increase Pell Grant eligibility for many students. However, students with specific circumstances may see reduced eligibility, and state grant programs may need to fill the gap for students with unmet financial need.

If you like only treats (and no tricks!) on Halloween, a trip to @eastersealsswfl is the perfect thing for you. Thanks for giving our team a chance to help the kids during the Halloween parade. It was a pleasure to see them embraced by fun costumes with candy & smiles.

Thank you @Results1stLLC and @RFaucy for working with our Regional Scholarship Providers Network on how our group + individual participants can achieve more gains with students. #education @FLCollegeAccess

New data suggests that institutions overestimate student awareness of key support services on their campuses. By employing specific strategies, institutions can ensure that students know as much as possible about what's available to them.
