Department of Education Surpasses 1.5M FAFSA Submissions, Releases Title IX Resources, and Focuses on Mental Health

サマリー
あらすじ・解説
Welcome to our latest podcast on the Department of Education's recent news and developments. This week, we're starting with a significant headline: the Department has surpassed 1.5 million 2025-26 FAFSA submissions, successfully processing and sending 7 million student records to higher education institutions and states to prepare and package aid offers[4].
This milestone is part of the Department's ongoing efforts to improve the FAFSA process, making it easier for students to access financial aid. Secretary Miguel Cardona has emphasized the importance of making higher education more accessible and affordable for all Americans.
In other news, the Department has released new resources to help schools comply with the 2024 amendments to Title IX Regulations, which went into effect on August 1, 2024. These resources clarify and update longstanding obligations related to Title IX coordinator duties and prohibitions on sex discrimination based on pregnancy or related conditions and parental, family, or marital status[5].
The Department has also been focusing on mental health and career technical education programs. Secretary Cardona recently traveled to Salt Lake City, Utah, to uplift these initiatives and discuss wildfire response efforts in Hawaii[4].
On the policy front, the Department has issued a new resource that offers a model process to design policies for student use of cell phones and personal devices in schools. This is part of a broader effort to ensure that schools create safe and supportive learning environments.
Looking ahead, the Department will hold an additional negotiated rulemaking session on February 22 and 23, focused on providing relief for borrowers experiencing hardship. This session is a continuation of the critical work that started last summer when the Administration announced its original student debt relief plan[1].
For those interested in staying up-to-date on these developments, we recommend checking out the Department of Education's website for the latest news and resources. Public input is also crucial, so we encourage listeners to engage with the Department and provide feedback on these initiatives.
In closing, we want to highlight the importance of these developments for American citizens, businesses, and state and local governments. The Department's efforts to improve access to higher education, address mental health, and ensure safe learning environments have far-reaching impacts on our communities.
