Non custodial parent is wealthy, lives in another country with another family and doesn't provide support. Duke looked into it and gave full ride, Penn said the non custodial payment should pay.


Parents who are divorced seem to be a whole other ballgame. I think it's interesting the FAFSA only looks at the parent with greater custody but the CSS seems like they typically consider both.


You can get a waiver on css so you don’t have to include non custodial parent. You have to prove estrangement.
