[quote=Anonymous]Financial aid forms are not required for admission for domestic applicants to any US college. There are a few colleges that require FAFSA to rule out Pell eligibility before awarding certain non-need-based scholarships. Often, you don't actually need to submit FAFSA until you are notified that you are considered for the scholarship. Not long ago, in a discussion about VT (one of the schools requiring FAFSA for merit) stated that they were notified to submit FAFSA to get a specific merit award, they never submitted, and got the merit anyway. Most colleges do not require financial aid forms for non-need-based merit scholarships. I am not aware of any college that requires CSS Profile for non-need-based merit. (Obviously, it may be required for a combination merit/need scholarship at schools that require the Profile.) My kids were awarded merit at several schools. We have never submitted a financial aid form.[/quote]
