'Inexcusable': Senators grill Education secretary over botched FAFSA roll out

WASHINGTON (NEXSTAR) - Education Secretary Miguel Cardona said the Department of Education is working around the clock to make sure the FAFSA process improves, after major delays and a troubled roll out of the new financial aid form.

"We've had delays, we've had issues with some of the coding that we had to make changes to," Cardona said.

Lawmakers grilled Sec. Cardona about the roll out during a hearing on Tuesday, just one day before May 1, which in normal circumstances is considered college decision day for many high schoolers around the country.
