<p>You won't be able to do a noncustodial profile, you'll have to ask the Profile school for a noncustodial waiver, which has to be coupled with a third-party verfication letter that you do indeed not know where your dad is.</p>
<p>First, make sure your financial safeties are schools that guarantee to meet need. I don't think either of the schools you mention do. Most schools seriously gap--it doesn't matter what your EFC is. As for profile, you'll need to show all of your mother's assets, such as any equity in a home. If your dad hasn't paid any child support and your school counselor will verify he's not in your life, many schools will give you a waiver.</p>
