“If at one point the FASFA overhaul was neither a money nor a management issue, it is now both, and students will continue to suffer for it.”
“If at one point the FASFA overhaul was neither a money nor a management issue, it is now both, and students will continue to suffer for it.”
HS senior in mixed-status family: “The government screwed up the FAFSA, but now I get to hear how resilient I am for not giving up on trying to submit it. That’s a little messed up.”
Ignorance is not bliss. Lying to parents about how their children are doing academically is definitely the easier path, but it is always the wrong path. Across the country, there is a massive disconnect between student performance and parents’ perceptions. Who does that benefit?

Your Monday college access alarm: As of early April, the latest #FAFSA gap readout is 26 percent fewer applications submitted by high school seniors compared to a year ago. And 38 percent fewer FAFSA completions (apps with nothing to correct). Data via @NCANetwork
This is part of how exclusion works. Heavy marketing to drive up applications with no intent of expanding admissions. The rejection (cruelty) is the point. #RealCollege

Two facts: 👉 More jobs will require a postsecondary credential over the next decade 👉 Fewer students are graduating from college
So sad for so many deserving students who happen not be born wealthy. Meanwhile, legacy students- many of whom are born on third base without financial need- continue to maintain their privilege of admission policy that gives them an unfair competitive advantage. We are so lost…

I absolutely love when our @ChicagoCred young men have the opportunity get a chance to learn from my best friend and mentor, John Rogers.
2024 was supposed to be the year the U.S. Education Department unveiled a simpler application for high school seniors to get their college financial aid. But instead, it has been a fiasco — and it may end up hurting those students counting on the funds to make their choice.
Financial-aid director writes: “The part I’m struggling with is that I don’t think that these #FAFSA problems are going to get fixed, truly fixed, for months and months to come. I think you’ll be talking with me about this in October. I would love to be wrong.”
I can’t even wrap my mind around what it means that FAFSA completion is down 30.7 percent on March 15 compared to last year. “Alarm bells” don’t really do this situation justice. It’s a 10-alarm fire for all who care about college access. And I know so many do!
.@DC_CAP College Signing Day @CapitalOneArena April 26. This is a big time thank you to families and a way to celebrate students for their hard work and effort in preparing for their post secondary endeavors. “I will be taking my talents to @UMassLowell” or to “@GeorgeMasonU”!

Fourteen years ago today, I signed the Affordable Care Act into law. Afterwards, one Republican member of the House called the ACA the “most dangerous piece of legislation ever passed in Congress.” Another predicted the country would “never recover from it.” But then something…
To everyone who is battling cancer: we all wish you nothing but the best, & you have no obligation to tell anyone anything. You tell who you want to when you want to, and only when you are ready. To those not battling cancer today: please give those who are a whole lot of grace!

The long-term effects of the #FAFSA delays are incredibly concerning. Per @CNBC -- at the current rate, the number of FAFSAs submitted by the end of August will be about *2.8 million lower* than the same time last year. cnbc.com/2024/03/19/faf…

Fwiw, this is one reason I'm not fully on board with the "it's the phones" argument. Are phones behind the drop in 4th grade reading scores? More specifically, are phones somehow only affecting low-performing kids?

Very excited to have the Governor as part of our Make Care Work event at the White House today!
Child care is infrastructure. It’s what lets people get back to jobs they put on pause, or enter the workforce for the first time. This morning, I joined the @WhiteHouse team and fellow Governors to talk about how we're making child care work in Massachusetts.
It was so great seeing you @MikeJohnstonCO! Thanks for your support!

I absolutely love when our @ChicagoCred young men have the opportunity get a chance to learn from my best friend and mentor, John Rogers.
That was one amazing game! Can’t wait to see the championship game…
Had a dream last night that I was hooping with Kyrie and LeBron. Missed a 3, then hit one. Was just trying to help our team win, and not let my teammates down. I have no idea what Freud’s analysis might be, but all I can say is that some boyhood dreams never die.
2024 was supposed to be the year the U.S. Education Department unveiled a simpler application for high school seniors to get their college financial aid. But instead, it has been a fiasco — and it may end up hurting those students counting on the funds to make their choice.
Financial-aid director writes: “The part I’m struggling with is that I don’t think that these #FAFSA problems are going to get fixed, truly fixed, for months and months to come. I think you’ll be talking with me about this in October. I would love to be wrong.”
I can’t even wrap my mind around what it means that FAFSA completion is down 30.7 percent on March 15 compared to last year. “Alarm bells” don’t really do this situation justice. It’s a 10-alarm fire for all who care about college access. And I know so many do!
