@AnimeFanDaisy @Maddiso04682362 @bostonfdn @BostonSchools @FAFSA Is it a problem if blacks are overrepresented on a football or basketball team? Or is it merit? Do they deserve to be there? Should there be racial quotas? Students should be selected for any advanced programs based on merit, not race. So no problem.

@Maddiso04682362 @Dystopia1953 @bostonfdn @BostonSchools @FAFSA Dont you think it's a problem when 80% of students are hispanic and black and 70% of students in advanced work program are Asian and white? Nothing wrong with Asian and white people being in advanced work program but there has to be a way to ensure everyone a fair opportunity

Itβs critical to securing financial aid β> applications are way down this year, particularly with students of color and low income students.

Would've been super handy to have been told the correct years FAFSA to fill out and to then be told after I filled out the wrong one that I need to fill out the other one. Here's hoping this gets processed, it's down to the wire for a spring start. π€π€π€

Student who get aid from FAFSA should be given a loan p*** if they did bad due to the pandemic. I know so many people who too Ls and last two semesters hurt them.

@aoifemcgowan @JohannesTEvans Physical or emotional abuse. I saw my high school counselor and she had to confirm their was emotional abuse for the college. Then you do the fafsa and its marked as not complete, but since you talked to your school they can go in a accept it and fix it to give you aid.
