Episode Details

Cal State students are scrambling as financial aid arrives dangerously late—sometimes even after tuition deadlines—thanks to a federal student aid fraud system overhaul in April. With $5.5 billion in aid distributed annually, delays hit thousands, straining already overworked offices and leaving students stressed about paying for school. While some were unaffected by early deadlines, others face uncertainty about enrollment and loan limits they didn’t anticipate. Though complaints remain low thanks to protective enrollment policies, experts urge students to stay vigilant: check emails, call aid offices, and act fast if finances shift. Persistence is key when bureaucracy slows things down.
