Supporting Universal FAFSA in Massachusetts

On April 5, 2023, uAspire held a briefing in partnership with The Education Trust on the importance of FAFSA completion in Massachusetts for state offices, college access organizations, and higher ed institutions.

We shared critical data on college enrollment and access to financial aid information, discussed the correlation between the Massachusetts universal FAFSA bill (HB1294) and the Department of Higher Education’s Equity Agenda, and reviewed uAspire’s research on nationwide universal FAFSA initiatives. You can watch the briefing at the bottom of this post. 

You can support HB1294 by asking your district senators and representatives to co-sponsor this legislation and by amplifying our social media campaign:
