Do I Need to fill out the FAFSA or CSS?

Hi, after using FA calculator, and discussion with my parents about how we are going to afford WashU, they said that we didnt need financial aid for WashU and could pay full price comfortably. Based on this, do I have to fill out the FAFSA and CSS for WashU? Also, will it be advantageous for me, in the admissions office, for me to not fill it out, if I really don’t need financial aid? Thanks!

Deadline was February 1st for FAFSA and CSS. But to answer your question, no, you don’t need to fill anything out if you know you won’t qualify for FA.

If you missed the deadline for applying for FA, its a non issue. Does Wash U require the FAFSA or CSS to be considered for any other scholarships?

No they don’t.
