<p>I am not eligible for financial aid of any kind. If I don't submit either the FAFSA or the CSS Profile, what are the repercussions? If I don't turn them in, I know I can't get need-based aid, and I'm pretty sure I can't receive merit scholarships either. Will I still be able to attend as long as I pay tuition in full, or will the school not be able to take the money?</p>

If you got admitted to a school, the school will be happy to take your money.</p>
<p>Okay. But I will not be eligible for merit scholarships?</p>
<p>It really all depends on the school. some schools require the FAFSA to be filled out in order to get merit scholarships. Some schools also will not give aid in future years if the FAFSA is not filled out the first year. Call the school to check their website for their specific policy.</p>
