a quick question about college board Fin Aid app. Any advice is appreciated!

<p>In the "Expected Support for Educational Expenses" section I need to put an 'amount of annual support toward educational costs....'. </p>

<p>My bank statement, which I will be sending later, shows support(some part of it) only for the freshman year. Do I just put an approximate amount of money for the following years?</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>It should be perfectly fine if your bank statement only shows support for the first year. Most families don’t have four years’ worth of support sitting in a bank account waiting to be withdrawn because much of it comes from current income.</p>

<p>As a word of caution, it is generally assumed that you will contribute similar amounts each year. (In particular, don’t try to outsmart the college by offering to pay a lot in your first year in the hope of getting more financial aid later on. That’s rarely how things pan out…)</p>

<p>lol. on top of what b@r!um said, tuition usually increases by ~5-7% every year. how that will affect you really depends on which country you’re in, given the US dollar’s current situation.</p>
