[quote=Anonymous]We went through this nonsense last year. Filled out the FAFSA and the other CSS profile. Complete waste of time. We did not come across a single uni that needed it for merit aid (nor did DC get any merit aid), and we applied to 15+. Personally, I doubt a school that wants the FAFSA for merit-based aid. Are they trying to give that aid to needy kids? Isn't that just another form of need-based aid? Not against it, but just call it what it is so people don't get their hopes up. It's quite easy to figure out if you qualify for any need-based aid. If the calculators show that you don't, you don't. So unless you already know you will qualify for aid OR if the school needs it for merit aid, don't waste your time. [/quote]
