The U.S. Department of Education started sending out student financial aid information to some colleges and universities this week after months of delays and technical issues.

The department said that it sent the first batch of information to “a few dozen schools” on Sunday and is collecting feedback to identify any technical issues before expanding delivery to more institutions.
