Incoming Minnesota college students are leaving money on the table, and most don’t even realize it. Students who do not promptly fill out the FAFSA miss out on need-based grants, loans and work-study for a whole school year—and just as importantly, they miss out on potentially transformative information about resources that might have helped make college dreams possible. Minnesota’s graduating classes of 2021 and 2022 left nearly $100 million on the table in Pell Grants by not completing FAFSA.
In this episode, Josh and Margaret talk with Thomas Anderson, Executive Director of Students United, about how low completion rates of the FAFSA are affecting Minnesota students. Thomas also talks through the current status of the FAFSA and why Minnesota legislators should pass a universal FAFSA policy for Minnesota students.
