Financial Aid As the years go by, many colleges tuition increase. Many people have become unemployed. Young adults, teenagers or maybe elderly people turn to financial aid to help them through college. They simple want to get themselves a better future.

No one has ever become poor by giving. Financial aid is a great organization. However, the more loans they give becomes a problem. To help the issue with price of college, the Minnesota government should continue and increase the amount of grants and scholarships in financial aid.

the financial aid department was overrun with the task of manually processing requests for federal financial aid as well as non-federal financial aid. At the time the department employed six financial aid administrators who processed approximately 1 to 200 files per day. For every 100 files approximately only 17 were considered to be ready for the awarding process, (granting the student financial aid according to government title IV policy).
