[quote=Anonymous]The short answer is it depends on the private school. Some require the FAFSA for merit aid while others require an essay plus GPA and SAT scores. Here is an example of why a school would require a FAFSA. Imagine a poor smart student. The school would first want to use Pell and other government subsidized grant $$ for this student BEFORE it took $$ from the merit fund pot. The student's cost of attendance (COA) would be the same, but the $$ came from different places.[/quote]
