The goal of the 2020 FAFSA Simplification Act is to streamline how students and families apply for financial aid, and how eligibility is determined. The newly revised law represents substantive changes in the fundamental formula used to determine financial aid eligibility, the students’ Pell Grant, and the additional institutional aid that higher education institutions can provide. And while the new Act endeavors to make applying for federal financial aid easier for students and families, the soon-to-be-released simplified FASFA is almost like starting from scratch, significantly impacting your technology, admissions, financial aid, and enrollment offices.
