Common App Question

<p>Hello CCers,
I am confused about the Bio. info in common app and MyMIT. My mother remarried after my biological father deceased and my step-father is not my legal guardian. On the "Father" section of the common app and MyMIT, I am more comfortable to put down information about my biological father. But, will that confuse the admission officers though? Afterall, my mother is remarried. Thanks.</p>

<p>Your mother’s husband is not your father (legally), and you say you don’t consider him you father (other than legally), so I would put your biological father’s info. They will figure it out. Many people have re-married parents. </p>

<p>On the application, you list your biological parents. It is on financial aid forms such as the FAFSA that having a step-father matters.</p>
