[quote=Anonymous]OP, I think you should let your daughter decide whether she wants to disclose this and in what manner. Financial aid decisions are strictly about the income numbers. They will probably want to know why her father's income can't be considered, but after that, it won't make a difference if he was incarcerated and won't increase the award. Scholarships are a different story and perhaps a grantor will be swayed by her overcoming a hardship. But, again, when and how to disclose really should be her decision, not yours. She should also be filling out these applications herself. Colleges can tell when parents over involve themselves in the application process and this can raise a red flag.[/quote]
