Las Vegas, NV – Edvisors, a leading source of expert information on college financial aid, announces the release of its 2024-2025 FAFSA Guide, providing crucial insights and updates to students, parents, and school counselors navigating what is one of the most challenging years for FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) applicants.
The 2024-2025 FAFSA was released at the end of 2023, and this year the application looks different than the previous years due to changes implemented based on the FAFSA Simplification Act. Many changes are highly visible to students and families as they work through the application. Changes such as the retirement of the expected family contribution (EFC) and the introduction of a new index to aid calculations: the Student Aid Index (SAI). Edvisors’ guide and resources aim to demystify the complexities introduced by these changes, ensuring applicants can successfully complete the process.
"A perfect storm of regulatory updates and economic pressures has made this FAFSA season particularly daunting," said Elaine Rubin, Director of Corporate Communications at Edvisors. "We understand that completing the FAFSA can feel overwhelming, especially with recent changes and delays that are impacting college decisions and financing. Our goal in releasing this comprehensive guide is to equip families with the knowledge and tools to navigate these changes successfully."
The Edvisors 2024-2025 FAFSA Guide will highlight critical updates, including:
- A breakdown of substantial changes due to the FAFSA Simplification Act.
- An explanation of the SAI and its implications for applicants.
- How to determine and identify FAFSA contributors within complex family dynamics.
- Navigating the latest FAFSA news to ensure students and families know what to expect as far as processing and delays.
In addition to the written guide, Edvisors is also providing a video demo walkthrough, offering a step-by-step visual aid for those who want to preview the application before diving in.
