Colleges in the Quad Cities push back enrollment deadlines

Some colleges in the Quad Cities area are extending enrollment deadlines because of federal financial aid delays.

Colleges won't be able to see students' Free Application for Federal Student Aid, or FAFSA, data until mid-March. That's due to major changes being made to the FAFSA process by the U.S. Department of Education.

Last week, Monmouth College announced that enrollment deposits will now be due in June, a month later than the previous deadline. St. Ambrose University also extended its enrollment deadline to June.
