Education Department Starts Sending Financial Aid Data to Colleges After Months of Delays

After months of delays and technical hiccups, some colleges and universities have started to receive federal data they need to put together financial aid offers for incoming students, the Biden administration said Monday.
The Education Department says it sent a batch of student records to “a few dozen schools” on Sunday and is making final updates before expanding to more universities. The department did not say which schools received the first batch or how many student records were sent.
