Hi, I initially said no to financial on common app for USC and WashU. But now we had some financial changes and I believe we could qualify for some aid. Can i still submit a fafsa and css for those schools even though i said no on commonapp?
If you are asking about aid from the schools, that would be up to each school. You need to ask the schools. You can always submit FAFSA to see if you are eligible for federal aid or state aid.
Contact your colleges and get that NO,changed to YES and then submit all of the financial aid application forms.
You will be using 2017 income tax year data. If your financial change happened recently, you will also need to find out from each college how to request a special circumstances consideration.
