Change is coming to the U.S Department of Education.

President Obama’s plan entails measures to reform education for all levels. The elimination of the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, or FAFSA form, is at the heart of the plan for college students.

FAFSA has become notorious for its complexity, containing six pages of detailed questions. FAFSA officials request personal information such as the family’s adjusted gross income and the Social Security numbers of both parents.
