FAFSA Fail: a look into low income students’ financial aid access

Notes

• Statistics show that 100% of schools have computer access, but whether they have enough computers or good working ones is debatable.

• Only 45% of people with incomes under $15000 have at home computers

• Online applications are processed faster.

• Often students cannot access their e-mail both at home and at school causing problems due to the importance of e-mail for financial aid correspondence.

I’m glad I don’t have to use the

school computer. It never seems to

work

If he had his own computer,

He would be done already.

Often there are pages you can only open at home or at school and when its e-mail that poses a problem.
