<p>This question: "Enter the amount your parents think they will be able to pay for your 20111-12 college expenses." How am I supposed to answer that? The help on the site says not to include loans. The college we are applying to says to include assets and loans. This is under student resources, so is it supposed to include tuition, room and board, or just all the other stuff that I currently pay for?</p>
<p>That’s my personal favorite for “most useless question on CSS” award … like it makes a difference to the colleges what we think we can pay! :)</p>
<p>I just put in the amount I think I could swing … it doesn’t have any bearing on anything, as far as I can tell.</p>
