Although college enrollment declines leveled off this year, the number of students who started but then withdrew has been on the rise, according to the National Student Clearinghouse Research Center. At the same time, roughly 26% of current undergraduates have seriously considered leaving college or are at risk of dismissal, according to a separate report by education lender Sallie Mae. "We need more support for early college planning, especially for first-generation students or those from underserved communities," said Rick Castellano, a spokesperson for Sallie Mae. Among students who are considering putting their education on hold, most said it was due to financial concerns. Others cite a loss of motivation or life change followed by mental health challenges, Sallie Mae found.

☆ Here are some strategies to maximize your financial aid for college
▼ + stars: | 2024-02-22 | by ( Jessica Dickler | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +3 min

Apply for financial aidIn ordinary years, high school graduates miss out on billions in federal grants because they don't apply for financial aid. Because this year's award letters are likely to look a lot different, that also opens the door for families to ask for more college aid. In that case, you may be able to appeal to the college financial aid office, according to Menaka Hampole, assistant professor of finance at the Yale School of Management. Alternatively, if the financial aid packages from other, comparable schools were better, that is also worth bringing to the school's attention in an appeal. "It's very important for students and families to know that financial aid offices tend to be very approachable," Greenberg said.

Chicago-based saxophonist Joshua Shapiro, 48, embarked on the quest for la dolce vita as the first step toward a change of life. Many empty homes featured on the local website where owners meet buyers are sold or rented with furniture, but what eventually ends up being left inside is usually negotiated between parties.

Accompanied by Castellano, the deputy mayor, Shapiro says he was surprised to find it had tenants inside – a group of elderly nuns.

☆ FAFSA delays likely to slow college decisions. 'It's a real mess,' expert says. Here's what to do if your financial aid letter is late
▼ + stars: | 2024-02-01 | by ( Jessica Dickler | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +3 min

For most students and their families, which college they will choose hinges on the amount of financial aid offered and the breakdown between grants, scholarships, work-study opportunities and student loans. This year, schools are now waiting on that FAFSA information to begin building financial aid packages and to give students and families enough time to weigh their options. "The delay in sending FAFSA data to colleges will cause college financial aid offers to be delayed until at least April, maybe even May." "Making an offer of admission without offering a full financial aid offer really isn't useful for most families," said Adam Miller, vice president for admission and financial aid at Whitman College in Walla Walla, Washington. To do this, Whitman and other colleges would need to leverage the information families provided in their completed CSS Profile.

☆ The new FAFSA will be available by Dec. 31 — what families need to know about the college financial aid form
▼ + stars: | 2023-12-04 | by ( Jessica Dickler | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +3 min

The earlier families fill out the form, the better their chances are of receiving aid, since some financial aid is awarded on a first-come, first-served basis, or from programs with limited funds. However, that shouldn't prevent families from completing the FAFSA in the days that follow, he added. "While there may be some hiccups along the way, students and families should do what they need to do to file as soon as possible," he said. Up until now, "the multiple student adjustment has been the single most important data element affecting one's eligibility for federal student aid," Chany said. At the same time, the new FAFSA will raise the family income threshold, making more students eligible for federal need-based aid.

☆ With or without loan forgiveness, fewer students are enrolling in college, questioning the return on investment

Hero Images | Hero Images | Getty ImagesEven before the Supreme Court blocked President Joe Biden's plan to forgive student debt, fewer students were enrolling in college. But this fall, freshman enrollment continued its slide, sinking 3.6%, according to the National Student Clearinghouse Research Center. "This is more bad news for four-year colleges," said Doug Shapiro, the National Student Clearinghouse Research Center's executive director. Rising college costs and ballooning student debt balances have caused more students to question the return on investment. But increasingly, borrowers are struggling under the weight of education debt, which today totals more than $1.7 trillion.

Most hybrid workers (55%) say paying employees more for their in-office work would provide “a lot” of encouragement for them to work in-person more often. Additional pay topped the list across respondents whether they were working in-person, remotely (44%) or in hybrid (50%) roles. Regardless, many U.S. employees have returned to in-person work, or had never left. Most paid employees report that they work in person per NORC's survey, and three-quarters of those in-person employees say they are required by their employer to do so. The number of people working remotely has fallen significantly since the peak of COVID-19 — but is still far higher than pre-pandemic levels.

The couple say that the cost of living in the US has become too high, especially when it comes to healthcare. Chris explains that the political polarization in the US has been a contributing factor in their decision to relocate to Italy. Although the costs were slightly more than they estimated, the Tidroskis say they couldn’t have afforded a similar house in the US. While his mother was Italian, Chris’ father was Polish-Lithuanian.

Early decision, on the other hand, can "help leverage someone's admissions chances." Despite the possibility of improving your odds of acceptance, there are other factors to consider, especially when it comes to financial aid. For colleges, early decision is a win-winFor schools, offering students an option to apply early has clear advantages. In addition, getting a head start on the makeup of the freshman class helps admissions officers balance out enrollment needs with financial aid requests. (Some schools also offer another option, called Early Decision II, which is due in January.)

"China is not trying to supplant the IMF," said Matthew Mingey, a senior analyst with Rhodium Group. "When China has allowed these swap lines to be tapped, in many cases it's to unlock an IMF bailout or ensure an IMF programme stays on track." In turn, China is a major customer for Argentina's soy, corn and poultry exports. "China has every incentive to tightly manage Argentine drawings under the swap lines as the risks are very high." The swap line that the People's Bank of China (PBOC) signed in 2009 with Buenos Aires was the first agreed with a Latin American country.

Today the Spanish language is the fourth-most-spoken language in the world, and it is the most common language spoken in the United States after English. Then there is the Mexican population that lived here long before the United States claimed their land. Each wave infused American Spanish with local flavor. That’s partly because the language spoken in each country has unique characteristics, at the national and the regional level. American Spanish features all of these elements, which depend on the national background and geographic location of the speaker.

How to watchThe Preakness Stakes will take place on Saturday at the Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore, Maryland. Julio Cortez/APThe controversy started after Medina Spirit, who died in December 2021, won the Kentucky Derby two years ago. After the race, Baffert revealed that the horse had tested positive for elevated levels of betamethasone. In February 2022, the Kentucky Horse Racing Commission announced its decision to disqualify Medina Spirit.
