MISSOULA — A technical error with two University of Montana computer systems caused a halt in the filing of students' FASFA applications, which has delayed students from receiving their financial aid offers.
A UM spokesperson says students are currently being notified of the situation by University of Montana officials and that the financial aid office is working to remedy each application on a case-by-case basis.
The deadlines for paying tuition have been relaxed from the original deadline of Sept. 16, 2024, and new tuition deadlines will be posted as UM continues to re-do applications.
