So I omitted Duke University from my FAFSA since I felt like my chances of getting in were close to zero. If I added it to my FAFSA list now (I can remove one of the universities I was rejected from), is there any chance I’ll be considered for Financial Aid?
You would need to contact Duke and ask them to change your app to state that as well. You don’t need to do this at all if you’re only interested in a Stafford Loan. You can do that after getting accepted.
@“Erin’s Dad” Would I be able to contact about it after the decision?
Doubtful but it’s worth a try.
@MurphyBrown oh wow! I did not know that lol… Coulda been helpful. Yes, I did apply for financial aid when I applied to Duke. I just changed it on my fafsa today, and I plan on emailing the financial office today. What do you think I should say? And I don’t remember if the CSS had a 10 max as well, but I feel like I may have listed it for my CSS profile. Thanks for your informative response!
@“Erin’s Dad” For sure, thanks a lot!
@MurphyBrown Yeah, just checked and it’s on there. Thanks so much for the advice! I’ll send them an email in a couple days to confirm
@MurphyBrown Will do that! Thanks so much!
