Now its a law to force kids to sign up for crippling life long debt in order to graduate. Fuckers want to saddle kids with this debt right out of high-school.

    This strikes me as a good idea since part of what the FAFSA accounts for is overall attempted credit-hours. Note I did not say overall attempted credit-hours payed for by student aid. It’s possible to run out of student aid simply because you or your family covered the cost of classes yourself in the past.

    Also, as others have pointed out the FAFSA doesn’t just qualify a person for loans, but grants also like the Pell Grant which at least 30% of all students qualify for.

      You all forget Trump just limited the Department of education and I promise there will no free aid for poor families. Hell our schools admitted that most kids will need to apply for LOANS.
