[quote=Anonymous]Sometimes the college web sites are not very clear about whether you need to fill out FAFSA for merit aid, and I've heard it's because they really prefer that people do so, just to rule out eligibility for financial aid first. In DC's case, there's no way he'll qualify for financial aid, and he has checked that we won't be applying on the Common App, but I'm going to be filling out the FAFSA, as his Counselor told him that at least one school that he is applying to requires it for merit aid. I figure it won't hurt him at schools that consider ability to pay, since he did check the "no financial aid" block, and the FAFSA will clearly show that he doesn't qualify, anyway. If they want to throw some merit aid our way, they will, and if they don't, they don't. [/quote]
