The Department of Education's errors in processing FAFSA applications have led to significant delays and inaccuracies, affecting thousands of students. Biden's SAVE Plan, which canceled loans for over 150,000 borrowers, faces legal challenges from 11 GOP states. Additionally, a calculation error in the 2024-25 FAFSA impacted 200,000 students' financial aid awards. Efforts to reform the student loan system are seen as crucial for the Biden administration's domestic achievements, despite facing criticism and legal threats.
