As Johnson C. Smith University prepares to welcome a record number of students to campus, a big barrier leaves hundreds of them sitting in limbo.
"Though many folks want to be here, under this new FAFSA they may not have received as much aid so that has generated a gap," Davida Haywood, the vice president of student affairs at the university, said.
Haywood said financial limitations, aid changes, delays, and glitches are also impacting families who may end up paying some out-of-pocket costs.
